Leathercraft has been an enduring family tradition, with its origins traced back to their establishment in 1691. The roots of this lineage can be attributed to Hanspeter’s grandfather, Johann Winklmayr, who started a small business specializing in leather goods in Austria during the early 1900s.
Despite the tremendous success of his artistry, HP Winklmayr exudes a demeanour of profound humility and an unwavering ardour for his craft. His countenance is consistently adorned with a gentle smile, and he emanates a welcoming warmth that envelops everyone he encounters.
