Quality and Care

(Click on any photograph on this page for an enlarged view in a separate window)

One of the most important aspects of our product range is the quality of the workmanship and the materials, everything we make is handcrafted, and if you are ever in a position to pick up one of our bags you will see for yourself that the quality does quite literally ''speak for itself''. It is almost impossible to demonstrate this satisfactorily via the pages of a website, or indeed via the pages of a brochure or a catalogue.

The textures and richness of the fabrics, the style and finish of the handles, the superb linings, and the wonderful variety of pockets and closures and fittings. All have to be seen and touched and ‘felt’ to be fully appreciated. But we hope that these photographs will go some way towards achieving this if you are unable to enjoy the experience for yourself.

And if you do still want to come and see for yourself, you will find a section with links to our ‘Stockist and Retail Outlets’ on our Links page. Or our Events Diary page will give details of where you will be able to come and see Jhasper ‘in person’ over the next few months.

Our passion for creating beautiful and unique products starts with the effort we put into sourcing our raw materials and to finding great suppliers.

By the very nature of the products we want to make, the fabrics we use for our bags and hats are those you would expect to be used for upholstery and home furnishings of the highest quality.

We therefore choose our suppliers carefully and selectively. We consider them to be our partners, and we are proud to list our association with them. Some of our most prominent suppliers include: -

• John Heathcoat & Co Ltd - Tiverton, Devon

• The Fabric Warehouse - Poole, Dorset

• Simon Keitch Photography - Plymouth, Devon

• Bags Of Handles - Felixstowe, Suffolk

• U-Handbag - London, SE2

• Pavi Yarns - Alnwick, Northumberland

• Get Knitted - Bristol, UK

• U.K.P. Accessories Ltd - Walsall, West Midlands

• Taylor Design and Print - Chard, Somerset

You will also find a section with links to the websites of our suppliers (where applicable) on our Links page.

Our wonderful bags will serve you well in every way from 'day to day use' to a special occasion, and if cared for they should give pleasure for many years to come. And they should be looked after in the same way that you would care for your items of furniture or your carpets. If you spill something on the fabric, sponge it off carefully with a damp cloth then treat it as you would your sofa or rug.

And if you haven't already done so, please may we now invite you to browse through the Products pages of our website, where we hope to portray what we consider to be the other equally important 'top priority' in our work - the sheer diversity of choice in terms of colours and shades and textures and styles.
