Bonner Studio is a handmade leather accessories design initiative by Jeremy Bonner and his partner Carla. Initially, Jeremy’s work explored archaic forms of luggage, specifically how the shape of the contents would dictate its form and construction.
More lately Jeremy’s work has moved away from its former minimalist approach, to something more decorative. He continues to explore the properties of leather through wet moulding, but now as a direct response to his immediate environment. The cycle journey to his studio as part of the creative routine is as important as time spent in the studio, allowing a familiarity with the woods and hedgerows, wildlife and the colours of the landscape. It all conspires to allow a deep and abiding sense of place, and a celebration of the mundane.
Jeremy hand-makes bags, belts and other accessories, and also delivers workshops.
