Steph Rubbo is a qualified Saddler and keen follower of all things equestrian, who loves the look and longevity of leather. A chance encounter reading The Last Horsemen by Charles Bowden ignited her passion for creating high-quality leather goods. Since then, she graduated with a Diploma in Saddle, Harness and Bridle Making from the Worshipful Company of Cordwainers and is a Society of Master Saddlers Qualified Saddler. Steph produces beautiful accessories and bridles and leather goods, winning top prizes from the Society of Master Saddlers.
Steph's favourite products are her box bags. The smallest has interchangeable short and long straps, and is intended for evenings out, or those times when you only have a few small essentials to carry. The largest she has made takes a large tablet, note pad, wallet, phone, and more. The lovely soft nappa leather lining always gets a great reaction.
Steph finds inspiration sitting in a public space people watching, just looking at the bags people carry, how they wear them, and what they use them to carry.
Steph Rubbo will be at Homeworks Christmas Bazaar on Sunday 1 December.
