Bradley Leatherwork was founded by myself, Tanya Bradley with the purpose of bringing you handbags and accessories made from materials that would have otherwise ended up in landfill. Seeing products in those broken items has been a real labour of love, from the design to the making each stage is undertaken by myself, ensuring the quality and workmanship of each item.
As seen on ITV’s Love your Weekend with Alan Titchmarsh.
Welcome to Bradley Leatherwork, the home of the handmade, unique and very stylish handbags and accessories made from saddles, tack and boots, made and designed in the heart of Dorset, exclusively by Tanya Bradley.
"When you are having fun, and creating something you love it shows in the product. I believe you can transfer that energy to material things as you're creating them." Tom Ford
This is a statement I truly believe in, I can guarantee I put my heart and soul into every bag, attention to detail and quality workmanship is what I’m about, I’m very approachable and am always happy to help you with designs and ideas to suit your needs.
I can make all of my bags to order from either your own saddle or mine. I work very closely with you my customer so we can both achieve the bag of your dreams.

The Bradley Leatherwork Collections
My range of products have evolved from my quest to make my puppy a dog collar six and a half years ago.It’s amazing how my business has evolved from this to the full collections today as well as bespoke work. Leatherwork is addictive, all of my bags unless stated are made totally by hand from saddles and tack using only traditional methods and tools. This ancient way ensures strength and longevity, your purchase is guaranteed to last , giving you value for money over many years. The true meaning of a Bag for life.

Old Saddles
I am always looking for old or damaged saddles to repurpose. Instead of letting them go to waste or end up in landfill, why not give them a new purpose? If you have any saddles to donate, please send us photos, I'd love to take them off your hands.
