How to make the most beautiful briefcase in the world

dunhill yesterday launched an short film that explores the traditional craftsmanship employed at its Walthamstow leather workshop, in London’s East end.

Staying faithful to the origins of the brand the film follows the construction of a single Brook briefcase, made entirely by hand from the finest vegetable tanned bridle leather. Charting the timely progress of dunhill’s singularly accomplished craftsman each piece is hand cut, sewn and finished using techniques and materials used for centuries. Nothing is hurried, everything is considered.

dunhill honours its namesake by offering customers the best in quality, service and experience; in their Walthamstow workshop they uphold the finest British traditions of saddlery on which the dunhill brand was built.
