On Friday, August 29th, we gathered for an inspiring event at the Fairlawns Boutique Hotel that brought together remarkable women shaping South Africa’s future. As we celebrated Women’s Month, we honoured not only individual achievements but also the resilience, creativity, and power that women contribute to every aspect of our society.
At Winklmayr Leathercraft, our story is deeply intertwined with these same values. For decades, our skilled craftsmen and women have created exquisite pieces from ostrich leather—a material renowned for its unique beauty and remarkable durability. Much like the women we honored, our leather embodies strength and elegance, showcasing the artistry that comes from passion and dedication.
Each piece is handcrafted by artisans who pour their heart into every stitch, transforming raw materials into timeless treasures. This event was a celebration of that craftsmanship, reflecting the same spirit of empowerment and excellence that defines both our products and the incredible women we gathered with.
It was such a pleasure meeting with Dr Sizakele Marutlule and exchanging views on heritage and the importance of provenance! The event was headlined by Healing Earth and we can truly recommend their ranges!
We celebrated Women’s Month in timeless style at the Fairlawns Boutique Hotel, enjoying a luxurious lunch surrounded by beauty, connection, and inspiration. The day was filled with unforgettable moments, reminding us of the strength we find in community and collaboration.
Thank you to everyone who joined us in this celebration. Together, we continue to uplift and empower women, creating a future rich with opportunity and creativity. Here’s to the women who inspire us every day and to the timeless elegance of Winklmayr Leathercraft.
