Launer London was established more than 80 years ago in Soho, London as a high end handbag and leather goods company. Its hallmark was elegance, formed out of the best materials and made by highly skilled craftspeople. Over the last forty years Launer, under the ownership of Gerald Bodmer has built up an enviable reputation as a contemporary brand with its distinctive handbag designs, and currentl

y holds the Royal Warrant to H.M. The Queen for handbags and small leather goods. Launer's trademark is understated, exceptional leather products made with pride by craftsmen and women using traditional skills. With care, they give years of pleasure and service. The Launer factory is in Walsall, near Birmingham, the traditional home of leather goods manufacturing in England. Launer wallets, card cases, purses and handbags are handmade in the softest calf. Every attention is paid to detail, and gold plated fittings feature the Launer rope emblem, the perfect finishing touch.

We celebrated an incredible event recently in the historic surroundings of The King’s Gallery, Buckingham Palace, and are delighted to share some of the highlights with you.

It was a night of prestige and celebration, where guests were invited on behalf of Launer and the Royal Collection Trust to an exclusive private viewing of Queen Elizabeth II: Her Life In Style, located in the magnificent The King’s Gallery.

As the gallery filled, the atmosphere was one of excitement and anticipation. The exhibition provided a fascinating talking point throughout the evening, and it was remarkable to view the carefully curated collection of Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in such an intimate setting.

We were honoured to see so many attendees from both the UK and overseas, many of whom had travelled especially for the occasion. It was a particularly proud moment to see guests carrying their cherished Launer bags with them.

Caroline de Guitaut, curator to the exhibition delivered a wonderful speech that captivated the audience, followed by our CEO, Gerald Bodmer. His words were especially poignant as he mentioned his lifelong passion for music and craftsmanship.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to everyone who attended and helped make the evening so memorable.

We are delighted to share this gallery of photographs from a truly exceptional Launer moment!

Yesterday Queen Camilla celebrated the founding of the Royal Hospital Chelsea by paying tribute to the “courage, discipline, loyalty” of its famous pensioners.

For the occasion she chose the beautiful Bella bag from our Launer X Sanderson collaboration in rose and peony.

A stunning floral design, which first appeared as a wallpaper in 1914 and as a fabric in 1929. A rich mix of botanicals - varied in scale, shape and form - are layered to create a lush, multidirectional composition. This floral symphony blooms across the exterior of the bag, whilst the interior features plush suede in a complementary pink hue, accented by a Dusky Rose leather reverse flap.

For every bag sold from the Launer x Sanderson collection, Launer will donate a percentage to QEST, the charity that invests in the future of British craft.

With the Chelsea Flower Show in full bloom this week, so too is our Launer x Sanderson collection -
where inspirational florals and delicate toile prints are reimagined across our iconic handbags. Presented today are two stellar styles, beloved by Royalty:
the Traviata and Bella.

The storied prints of Sanderson, a fellow Royal Warrant Holder provide a remarkable canvas that exquisitely captures the elegance of the summer social season.

Created in England using Launer’s renowned craftsmanship - each piece is brought to life by our skilled artisans, seen here in the Edwardian listed atelier that has been home to Launer for forty years.

This landmark collaboration also supports a meaningful cause. For every handbag sold, a percentage of proceeds will be donated to - QEST – the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust – a charity dedicated to transforming the careers of talented and aspiring makers by funding training and education, creating pathways to excellence, and strengthening the future of the UK’s craft sector.
