About Us

Personal Statement

Hello there, my name is Chamila. I founded TIKORI LONDON, born from a lifelong appreciation for classic timeless designs and the enduring love for handbags and accessories. With over 27 years of industry experience, I identified a significant gap in the market, the need for premium artisan made handbags at an accessible price point. Throughout my career I observed that clients were often forced to choose between functional practicality, modern aesthetics or a fair price tag. I believe we shouldn't have to compromise. My mission was to bridge that gap, bringing my vision to life through a collection that honour traditional craftsmanship while meeting the demands of the modern woman. At TIKORI LONDON our philosophy is simple. Beauty shouldn't be complicated. Whatever accessory you choose quality should be a standard never a luxury. 

“If it isn't beautiful enough to wear and durable enough to last, it doesn't carry our name”

— Chamila

Our Core Pillars

  • Design

    We believe true luxury lies in the details. At TIKORI London our design philosophy marries architectural silhouettes with everyday functionality ensuring every piece is as striking as it is practical.

  • Durability

    A handbag shouldn’t just last a season. It should last a lifetime. By sourcing premium materials and utilising time honored construction techniques we build TIKORI pieces to withstand the rhythm of city life.

  • Satisfaction

    Your confidence is our ultimate metric. We are committed to an exceptional experience from the moment you browse to the day your bag becomes a staple in your wardrobe.

From Sketch to Silhouette

  • The Vision

    Every TIKORI piece begins in our London studio as a hand-drawn sketch. Inspired by the architectural lines of the city, we focus on balancing a modern aesthetic with the functional needs of a busy lifestyle.

  • The Material

    We believe a bag is only as good as the hide it is cut from. We spend months sourcing premium leathers judging them for grain, depth of color, and how gracefully they will age alongside you.

  • The Creation

    Our silhouettes are brought to life by master artisans. Using a blend of traditional hand-finishing and modern precision, each bag is a labor of time, ensuring every stitch and edge-paint meets the TIKORI standard.

Sustainability

We are committed to minimizing our environmental footprint. From sourcing eco-conscious materials to utilizing plastic-free, recyclable packaging, we believe that true luxury should never come at the cost of the planet.

Ethical Sourcing

Every TIKORI piece is born from fair wage environments. We partner exclusively with workshops and artisans who uphold the highest standards of labor rights, ensuring craftsmanship is matched by dignity.

Transparency

We believe in being transparent about our production processes, delivering exceptional value directly from our design studio to your doorstep.

Inspired by the streets of London

TIKORI pieces are designed for the woman, who needs to transition effortlessly from a morning meeting in the City to an evening in Mayfair.

Essential Information

While we take every care to ensure our digital displays accurately reflect the luminous colours and textures of our natural leathers please note that the Bright light of a London morning may translate differently across various screens.
