Leather bags from Vienna

R. Horn's makes all sorts of bags and accessories in traditional Viennese craftsmanship: handbags, travel bags, document bags and briefcases, as well as iPhone pockets - all in a contemporary, modern style. Functionality and quality for a long life are of particular importance to company owner Robert Horn.

At Ledermanufaktur Wallmann, refined bags are also made to traditional craftsmanship, with the now rare hand-sewn seaming. Whether a Ferdinand briefcase, Sissi game bag or personal tailor-made piece: young master bag maker Gertraud Wallmann understands top-quality leather production.

Designer Susanne Kitz specializes in leather handbags with clear forms. Her collections are available in countless colors and styles. Women are certain to find the perfect addition to every outfit here.

Designer Rose Beck specializes in unusual shapes and details for her bags. Her designs surprise with refined finishes, which give her leather goods a three-dimensional structure. Recommended for women who value trendy design.

Nina Peter, the wife of star DJ Sven Väth, is actually known for her extravagant leather gloves and comes from Vienna's traditional store, Handschuh-Peter. However, the designer also has bags (mainly clutches) made from unusual leather materials (such as ostrich leather, python or leather made from salmon skin) in her repertoire.

Somewhat simpler and avant-garde are the designs of Ina Kent. Her bags focus on functionality and understatement. The leather bags can be made larger or smaller depending on the occasion, while the straps can be interchanged and combined as the mood takes.

Eva Blut combines leather with modern materials when creating her bags. This produces interesting visual contrasts. The simple, yet stylish, designs are based on geometric shapes - with attention to functionality: a handbag can be turned into a shopping bag in just a few moves.
