About Harris Leather Goods S.A.

Harris Leather Goods was a South Australian company founded in the mid-20th century, known for its high-quality leather products. Their work ranged from beauty cases to bespoke accessories, with an emphasis on durability and fine craftsmanship. Although the company is no longer in business, their products are highly sought after by collectors and lovers of vintage design. The legacy of Harris Leather Goods lives on in pieces like this one, which showcase their attention to detail and timeless style.

Collectability

This decanter set is a rare find, especially in such excellent condition. Its combination of craftsmanship, functional design, and rich history makes it a standout item. Collectors and enthusiasts value Harris Leather Goods for their unique contribution to mid-20th-century design. Pieces like this don’t appear on the market often, which adds to their appeal.

Additional Notes

The decanters and leather case are in excellent condition with minimal wear. The leather retains its original luster, and the glass is free of chips or cracks. Comparable leather-wrapped decanter sets from other makers sell for $150 to $250 AUD, but Harris Leather Goods pieces are particularly rare and carry a special charm.

Recommendations for Care

To maintain the leather’s rich texture, gently wipe it with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or moisture, as this can cause fading or damage. Keep the glass decanters clean by hand washing with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scrubbing pads.
