The Co-Founder of Paradise Row, Nika Diamond-Krendel gave her home styling tips to the Hello Magazine.

"The British are coming! Paradise Row, a London-based luxury leather goods brand, is set to enter the U.S. market for the first time, with Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop offering the label’s leather tennis racket cover and ball tube holder."

"The British leather goods brand has created these gorgeous, sturdy cutlery pouches with a luxe stitched edge, and we want at least six of them."

"Another chic design courtesy of designer Nika Diamond-Krendel, this pencil case comes in two cylindrical parts and features Paradise Row's signature stitched edge."

"Paradise Row is an emerging British leather goods brand with annual collections that draw inspiration from different aspects of society, psychology, culture and the arts. The Hourglass Collection in collaboration with artist Venetia Berry features four designs centred on the female form."

We are delighted to see our Leather Desk Mat in black featured in the Grazia Magazine's 'How To Decorate Your WFH Desk Space So You Actually Want To Work In It'.

"But Diamond-Krendel's customers still love her naturally tanned leather, for which she employs a gentle vegan method. "From a sustainability perspective I also don't want to fuel that need for 'newness', and getting a different bag every year."

Delighted to see our Amie + Paradise Row London Wine Set featured in the Ok! Magazine. There is no better pairing than our Leather Coasters Set with Amie Wine.

'We know he loves to pose by the BBQ, but give him a reason to and a serious style upgrade with this apron from Paradise Row.'

"The collaboration sees the introduction of pencil cases, coasters, cutlery pouches and a plant pot in a variety of luxury leathers. The pieces can be purchased online as well as at the new Soho Home Chelsea store."

"With all the to-ing and fro-ing that flexible working brings, the fear of smashing your Macbook on the commute home is all too real. Protect yours from scratches and keep it lint-free in the *fanciest* sleeve around, courtesy of Soho Home and Paradise Row's luxe collab."

So delighted to see our luxury leather Laptop Sleeve featured in the Country & Town House 'Daily Shopping: The Luxury List'. A product that started off as a collab has now become one of our biggest bestsellers.

"A perfect way of dressing up your table as fashionably as your sartorial choices, these tabletop treats are a leathery necessity." What an amazing feature for our Leather Trinket Tray and Leather Coasters Set in the Because Magazine.

Our beautiful fine Leather Coasters Set was featured in the Elle UK's 'Christmas Home Gift Guide'.

Our gorgeous luxury Leather Cutlery Holder in Forest Green was featured in the Elle UK 'Christmas Home Gift Guide'.

"The Cognac-coloured coasters from Paradise Row are made in east London, in partnership with local creatives. Not only are they a beautiful and timeless addition to your bar top, but by buying a set you'll also be supporting British textile culture and heritage. Every leather piece made by Paradise Row supports the continuation of time-honoured skills of London's east end leather trade, and helps to keep its traditions and local craftsmanship alive."

"The perfect place to keep trinkets, made in partnership with local creatives in East London." We were delighted to be featured in the Country & Town House 'The Ultimate Interiors Christmas Gift Guide'.

"Crucial kit for the modern nomad, the passport holder is always well received, particularly when personalised. Paradise Row London's vegetable- tanned leather design ticks the box for the ethically minded, while a clever external slit appeals to those who may have once (or twice) lost their boarding card in the depths of their hand luggage."

We are so glad to see our Leather Pencil Pot in Whisky Tan included in the Refinery29's 'The Ultimate Homeware Gift Guide For Every Budget'.

"Paradise Row is an East London based leather goods company founded to support the local trade and highlight the heritage of East London. Hailed for its low carbon footprint by producing its pieces locally, the brand has recently collaborated with a string of other London brands and businesses including Petersham Nurseries, The Harwood Arms, and Fare Bar and Canteen."

'Handmade in East London, Paradise Row's low carbon footprint designs pay homage to local culture featuring subtle embellishments including pearls - for the pearly kings and queens - and intricately carved boxing gloves in a nod to Repton Boxing Club. Their current Empathy Collection, constructed with gold plated fittings and hardware, channels the philosophical views of Love, Sorrow, Awe, Hope and Joy.'

We are delighted to see our Empathy Collection bag featured in the FT How To Spend It Magazine's article "18 ways to wear your art". Our 'Love' bag is a tribute to Robert Sternberg's triangular theory of consummate love comprising the three components of intimacy, passion and commitment.

The Times described our Core Collection bags as 'One classic saddlebag style in five colours, each tweaked by way of the fastening, which - be it a metalllic silkweaver's bobbin, boxer's glove or ship's wheel - references the history of the brand's East End home.'

'Made by hand in East London and in tribute to the area's long history with boxing, Paradise Row's saddle bag - with its gold plated boxing glove closure - is as chic as they come.'

'Fast becoming a favourite with the London street-style set are Paradise Row's sweet and kooky 'Empathy' bags, which feature facial expressions embellished across them. The area was once renowned for its thriving textile industry, but now has only a handful of leather workshops left. This inspired the founders to revive the spirit of the area with their new company, which is already making waves across the capital.'

'Can a bag reflect how you really feel? That's what Designer Nika Diamond-Krendel's second collection of bags for her label Paradise Row, titled Empathy, is asking. Each bag carries an expression of hope, love and sorrow - the perfect way to emote, sartorially.'

'Living in east London and having seen the decline of the leather and textile industry, I wanted to create a brand with a social purpose that would celebrate British craftsmanship in order to preserve it. All our leather goods, and in particular our once-a-year handbag collection, make the ideal sustainable gift. Our handbags are a piece forever, they are timeless. And each purchase makes a social impact by supporting a creative community working just a few miles from our studios.'

'Every timeless bag is handcrafted and made to last. We love the Contrapposto bag. Very 1990s chic.'

'The cross-body Love bag is crafted in east London from vegetable-tanned leather with gold-plated details.'

'Bring some cheer to a dreary, cold day with this Hope crossbody bag, designed and handmade in East London.'

'Paradise Row has East London's fashion heritage in it's DNA. Not only is every design made in East London, but their Core Collection of classic cross body bags celebrate the iconic institutions that have given the East End its unique character.'

'East London bag brand Paradise Row is selling factory seconds of its Core Collection and giving 100 per cent of the proceeds to the local institutions which inspired them, from community arts social enterprise Stitches in Time to The Pearly Kings and Queens Society.'

Paradise Row's Empathy Collection was inspired by psychology and human emotions. Photographed here are Sorrow, Love and Joy featured in an editorial for Elle Vietnam.

ES Magazine is an iconic brand designed for sophisticated, culturally-aware Londoners. Paradise Row was featured in the prestigious magazine earlier this year. Photographed here is the Sorrow bag, which is part of the Empathy Collection.

'The British artist Venetia Berry has collaborated with the East London-based leather studio Paradise Row to launch a limited-edition range of handbags embossed with Berry's striking female shapes.'

PHOENIX is a lifestyle brand for free-thinking modern women. Paradise Row's Hope bag, as part of the Empathy Collection, is seen here featured in one of their editorial photo shoots.

'Let these bags express your inner truth. East London based and sustainably sourced, Paradise Row is the luxury handbag brand to have on your radar. Founded and created by Nika Diamond, the designs focus on emotional and mental health awareness.'
