Strathberry is an Edinburgh based luxury label founded in 2013. We create leather goods, handcrafted in Spain by the finest artisans, using high quality materials. Strathberry products are defined by clean lines and a signature bar closure. Captivated by the craftspeople they encountered during their travels in Spain, Guy and Leeanne Hundleby were inspired to create a luxury label in their native Scotland. With no formal training, they began making intricate paper models of their bag designs inspired by the iconic bar closure found on a vintage music case. Their dedication to creating a product of unparalleled design and quality has attracted collaborators from the global fashion community, who are are now permanent members of the Strathberry family.
