About Us
English Heritage
We define timeless and refined English elegance through our collections of exquisitely crafted leather goods of the finest quality. This is at the heart of our brand and all that we stand for. Aspinal is an old English name, originating from the ancient term 'Aspen-well' meaning a copse of Aspen trees near a water well. We called ourselves Aspinal of London as this represents nature, strength and generosity as depicted in our heraldic inspired logo.
The Home of Aspinal
At the heart of Aspinal of London is a passion for British craftsmanship, beautiful design and exceptional service. Our London flagship store embodies these values, bringing together our signature leather collections in a setting that celebrates the world of Aspinal.
More than a place to shop, it is a welcoming home for our customers to discover the craftsmanship, creativity and personal touches that have defined Aspinal since 2001.
Prestigious Beginnings
Our Founder and Chairman, Iain Burton, was the original inventor and supplier of audio-guides to the world's most respected museums including the National Gallery, the Louvre, and the Vatican. This working partnership evolved into Aspinal, as we became their supplier of quality keepsake museum gifts with Iain selecting the best artisans to produce hand-crafted leather stationery. This quickly grew into the world-renowned quintessential English luxury brand we are today.
Dedication to Quality
Aspinal is known for being the number one brand for quality. Our goods are designed for longevity, we create with the view that they will be passed down through generations. Supreme artisanship is at the heart of achieving this standard of quality, and one of our defining brand values. All our products are handmade by skilled artisans in some of the finest workshops in the world. Our commitment to exquisite quality is unwavering.
Passion for Sustainability
We are proud to create timeless, long-lasting and responsible luxury. We are equally proud of our commitment to act consciously as a business to lessen our environmental impact and create positive change to the world we live in. We are refining our whole way of working to make Aspinal of London as sustainable a brand as we can make it.
