Winklmayr was born in a workshop in Randburg, Johannesburg — but the pieces we make have never stayed there for long. Over the past few years, our handcrafted ostrich and crocodile leather goods have found their way into some of the most remarkable spaces in South Africa and beyond. Whether you are a local who travels, a tourist planning a visit, or a gift-buyer searching from abroad, here is your complete guide to finding us in person.
Our stockists & showcase locations
Mercedes-Benz Brand Center Dubai
Dubai Design District (d3), Dubai, UAE
Our most recent and perhaps most spectacular showcase. The Mercedes-Benz Brand Center in Dubai's Design District is a destination that exists at the intersection of engineering precision and design mastery — which made it the natural home for Winklmayr's international debut. A carefully curated selection of our finest pieces, including the iconic Lexington in Nile crocodile belly leather, is on display within this extraordinary space. For visitors to Dubai with an appreciation for true craftsmanship, this is an unmissable stop.
Mount Nelson, A Belmond Hotel
76 Orange Street, Gardens, Cape Town, 8001
Cape Town's most storied address. The Mount Nelson — affectionately known as the "Nellie" — has welcomed dignitaries, artists, and discerning travellers since 1899. Its famous pink façade and colonial gardens make it one of the most photographed hotels in Africa. Winklmayr's exotic leather accessories are available at the hotel's boutique, making it the perfect place to take home a piece of South African craftsmanship after an afternoon of high tea on the terrace. For international visitors to Cape Town, this is the most elegant way to discover us.
Found at Fairlawns Boutique Hotel & Spa
1 Alma Road, Morningside, Sandton, 2052
Tucked away in the leafy residential streets of Morningside, Fairlawns is Johannesburg's best-kept secret — a boutique hotel of just 36 suites that feels more like a grand private home than a hotel. The Found Boutique within Fairlawns carries a curated selection of Winklmayr ostrich and crocodile leather handbags and accessories, chosen to complement the hotel's ethos of quiet, confident luxury. Whether you are staying, visiting the spa, or attending a luncheon, it is well worth stepping into Found to browse the collection.
Karoo Classics
Shop 2, De Wet Centre, Church Street, Stellenbosch, 7600
Set in the heart of the Cape Winelands, Karoo Classics in Stellenbosch has built a devoted following among both locals and international visitors drawn to the town's world-class restaurants, galleries, and wine estates. The boutique carries a thoughtfully selected range of Winklmayr pieces — including our collaborative Zara bag — within a beautifully curated retail environment. If you find yourself on the wine route, Stellenbosch's Church Street is a half-hour drive from Cape Town and an entirely worthy detour. Karoo Classics also has a presence in Prince Albert, a charming Karoo village that holds its own special place in the Winklmayr story.
Bryllianta Diamonds & Tanzanite
2 Maude Street, Sandown, Sandton, 2146
When two luxury crafts share the same values, collaboration comes naturally. Bryllianta — Sandton's destination for certified diamonds and rare Tanzanite — stocks a selection of Winklmayr exotic leather pieces alongside their jewellery collections. It is a pairing that makes complete sense: both brands are rooted in the African continent, both work with natural materials of extraordinary rarity, and both are built on the principle that true luxury is never hurried. A Winklmayr bag alongside a Bryllianta diamond makes for an unforgettable gift pairing.
"Every Winklmayr stockist was chosen because they share the same conviction: that the things we surround ourselves with should be made to last."
