Black French Nappa lambskin with a subtle depth and character — the kind of leather that looks better after six months than it does on day one, developing a patina that is entirely its own.
French Nappa lambskin on the outside, cashmere on the inside. The Bertie is handmade in Pécs, Hungary, at the Hamerli workshop — founded in 1861 by János Hamerli and still crafting gloves in the city's cultural quarter using methods largely unchanged since the nineteenth century. Every pair moves through more than 50 stages by hand, with six to eight specialist artisans working on each glove. Presented in Hamerli's signature packaging. Ships to the United Kingdom. Free returns.
##Handmade in Pecs, Hungary
Hamerli's facilities are located in the cultural quarter in Pecs. In the city of Pecs, this is a traditional glove production with a history of more than 150 years; it has preserved its philosophy and classical procedures. Different artisans work on different parts of the gloves, the ornaments, the cutters, the stitching phase, the stretching phase, the pressing phase, the lining phase, the ironing phase, and so on... so at least 6-8 people have to work on each pair, depending on the glove in the making.
Traditional glove-making in Hungary originated in the 19th century, when pioneer János Hamerli established his manufacture in 1861, introducing noble craftsmanship to the country. During his professional education as a tawer, János Hamerli improved his knowledge at great couturiers of Europe, acquiring developed artisanal techniques. After he founded his manufacturing facility, his gloves were in high demand internationally. He opened shops in Pécs, Budapest, and Vienna as well. János Hamerli built up a base for an acclaimed profession in Hungary and with time, his legacy evolved into a blooming industry. His name today symbolizes authentic glove-making, providing pieces of the highest quality.
Committed to the art of glove-making, Hamerli remains faithful to János Hamerli's legacy. Noble materials, passionate craftsmen, and outstanding know-how are vital parts of their traditional manufacturing process, ensuring the excellence of each of their products - both the ones adorned with the infamous Hamerli brand and other pairs made for other high luxury brands. A pair of Hamerli is a fine work of art created by proud artisans. The complex, traditional handcrafting process, almost unchanged throughout centuries, includes more than 50 separate stages through which an exclusive masterpiece is born.
