This year the Ettinger brand celebrates its 80th
year in business.
Crane Brothers has been the exclusive stockist of Ettinger leather goods in New Zealand for the last five years and we have just received a new delivery of their Sterling collection.
Initially launched with the striking, regal purple on the inside, inspired by the colour of the British £20 note, this collection now encompasses 3 more inside colours, duly representing all the British banknotes: the turquoise of the £5 note, the orange of the £10 note and the red of the £50 note
Touching the smooth calf exterior and soft-grained Calf leather interior of these wallets is enough to explain the popularity of this collection.

With this new and expanded range we have showcased our concept of what a modern...

Featuring a double-breasted six- or eight-button closure, an a-line shape finishing just...
