Think of the great ocean liners, with their polished wood, their brass fittings and passengers who dressed for dinner. Luggage had labels in those days that were part of the journey. This tag takes its cue from that era, with an Art Deco leaf design that feels glamorous without being fussy.
It is made from quality PU leather, measures 10cm by 7cm and comes with a strap included for your suitcase handle. You can personalise it with your initial and your address, so that it looks smart and does its job if your bag goes missing. On the back there is a glittery finish, which is a happy surprise when the light hits it and a practical help when you are searching a crowded baggage hall for your case.
We make each tag by hand in our Suffolk studio, to order. There is nothing hurried about it, and we like to think that shows. It fits all travel bags and backpacks, so it works as well on a vintage leather holdall as on a modern spinner suitcase.
It is a thoughtful gift for a wife who likes a bit of old glamour, a daughter setting off on her first big trip, or a friend with an eye for design. It arrives in letterbox-friendly packaging, and gift wrapping is available. Pair it with a good guidebook and a pair of sunglasses, and you have a present that feels properly considered.
