Customer Spotlight : Shirley Ball

Monday, 2 October 2023


I’ve been in the leather industry for thirty years and started making my leather handbags about eight years ago.

My focus is on creating bespoke pieces that are unique to each customer.

I put a lot of care and attention into each bag, making sure that it’s not only beautiful but also functional and durable.



I’m passionate about what I do and committed to delivering high quality products that my customers will love.

While I wish for my company to succeed financially, I also want to raise awareness of the leather trades in Walsall and the entire UK.


Sadly, most leather works have gone abroad, taking with them the skilled tradespeople associated with it .

Through Shirley Ball Handbags, I aim to raise awareness for the leather trade here in the UK.


Lets do what we can to support local British businesses.
