Materials
Crafted from carefully selected hides, and with a softly polished finish, our glossy ‘Atlantic’ leather allows the natural beauty and richness of the hide to show. The leather is (like all our leathers) aniline dyed, meaning it is coloured right through in the tanning process, not simply painted on top with pigment. This then allows for a light coating of surface waxes so that the natural feel and character of the leather is still available to feel and see. We source this leather from one of our favourite Spanish tanneries which has received the highest (gold) rating from the Leather Working Group, a control body which sets stringent guidelines for environmentally safe leather production, and to which we insist all our partner tanneries adhere.

Delivery & Returns

Delivery:

We aim to dispatch all orders swiftly and in-stock items will usually be dispatched within one business day. However, please bear in mind that we handcraft all our products here at Tusting HQ and intentionally hold low volumes of finished stock. We continuously make small batches of all items in our range, and most orders are sent out within just a few days of receipt. If there will be a delay of more a week before dispatch, we'll be in touch to ask if this may be a problem for you. Please allow for extra time if you have asked for your item to be personalised.

We ship everything by express service. Orders sent within the UK should arrive on the day after dispatch, except for outlying areas, and orders sent overseas will usually arrive within a week of dispatch – often much faster. Shipping is free for UK orders; international charges vary by location. Please click here for more information.

Returns:

If you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, we are happy to offer a refund, exchange or replacement on all goods returned to us within 30 days of delivery, provided they are in their original, unused condition. Bespoke orders or items ordered with bespoke alterations (including personalised initials or messages) cannot be returned unless faulty. Please see our full returns policy and how-to advice here.

KIMBOLTON'S STORY

A style that has been a staple in the Tusting collection for many years, and originally a simple open tote bag, the design and features of the Kimbolton have been updated and refined many times. The latest interation provided ultimate organisation in a compact package.

The name Kimbolton comes from a famous local village, just over the border into Cambridgeshire. This charming locale is home to Kimbolton Castle, the final residence of Catherine of Aragon after she was divorced by Henry VIII, now home to a private school. The village was also the base for the world-famous Kimbolton Fireworks company (founded by a former chemistry teacher at the school – sounds like lots of fun in lessons!).

BESPOKE & PERSONALISATION

All Tusting bags are hand-crafted in our Lavendon workshop. By special order, we can make your bag even more unique by personalising it, or we can create a bespoke colourway from our set of leathers. So whether it is a personalised message inside the bag, embossed initials or a special colour combination, don’t hesitate to contact us.

  • Elegance and Quality
    I am very pleased with my Mini Holly. It's beautifully crafted and such an elegant shape. I'm glad the company decided to move the foiled logo to the back of the bag - definitely more of a quiet luxury vibe! It's a bag that will look good for years to come.

  • Totally trust Tusting
    So easy to order and most importantly discuss the order via telephone call - which I did on 3 occasions to answer my queries. Superbly dealt with - so polite, patient, friendly and practical. Would recommend to everyone. Tried to order something similar with a competitor - there was no comparison, so Tusting earned my trust and very special 'once in a lifetime' gift order.
