He was informative about the products in the store, shared his website information, and answered all questions thoroughly while explaining the process to make items in the store. I went into the store looking for a pocketbook for my daughter made from Ireland and walked away with a wallet for my son, a purse for my daughter, and a purse for myself. This place was great! If you are in need of some handmade leather goods, this is the place to go. There were all types of necklaces, rings, bracelets, purses, and wallets. Please take a moment and place this store on your itinerary if shopping for leather goods.

I want to buy everything here!…read more And the smell. Ah, leather.... that sounds a bit kinky, but if you go in here you'll see what I mean. I was on the hunt for a present and this place almost won that race. Alas a new handbag was not meant to be this time, apparently my mam has enough of them. But when my birthday comes around, I'm seriously thinking of treating myself here to one of their satchels. So simple the design. And wonderful leather. So soft and so many colours. It is a pricey shop, but you're paying for handmade quality. I think it's an ideal place to look for a gift for someone special, someone you want to invest in. Apparently they'll customise their products too. Not sure if that's extra or not, but I will investigate that avenue when I'm back to buy myself that present. Love ThunderSolas.
