Tamara Fogle - yep, Ben Fogle's sister - designs these beautiful bags and accessories from her picturesque studio at the end of her garden, near Portobello, London, with Lola her black Labrador by her side.
With a background in interior styling and the antiques trade, Tamara embarked on designing a range of accessories in early 2007, strongly influenced by the classic charm, simplicity, and functionality of her collection of Victorian and Edwardian coin purses.
The bags are made in a small London workshop under Tamara’s helping hand and watchful eye. Each design is always produced in small quantities making each piece a limited edition.
My own favourites include:
Left: The Antique Pomeranian Flour Sack range made from 100% linen sacks dating from 1830-1940s. Each bag is trimmed with Italian leather and lined with cotton ticking. This 'Weekender' is £620.
Middle: Tamara uses antique hand quilted fabric from India and Pakistan to create her beautiful 'Chennai' Clutches (middle image) £89.
Right: This gorgeous chocolate leather 'Arundel' bag is £399.
