The Making of an EQUUS ATTACHÉ

See the bespoke attache case featured in this film here A traditional cedar framed Attaché is a fusion of crafts and in this short film we explore the heritage craft skills of the leatherworker, cabinet maker and metalworkers required to make one. A truly ’Made in England’ product, the film is shot on location in Westholme, County Durham and Walsall, the heart of the Black Country. Westholme is the 17th century hamlet in the North East of England that is Equus’ home base. Walsall was formerly England’s industrial heartland whose output powered an Empire but where now the foundry making our brass work is the last remaining in the UK. Watch as the craftsmanship we so carefully nurture brings the wood, leather and brass together in to a finished product. The Attaché is designed not to fulfil the current obsession with FAST i.e fast fashion, fast manufacturing and short product life. It is made to last, made to build a relationship
