After the last couple of years, time with family and friends is more special and valued than ever. We’ve all been looking forward to this festive season is with a greater sense of appreciation than ever before.
Sure, we haven’t quite gotten to December just yet, but with all the changes and difficulties experienced throughout 2021, be it with supply chains or deliveries all over the world, it’s not too early to start planning and ordering your perfect Christmas gifts.
Before you go through the Junyuan Leather Co. ultimate Christmas gift guide, we urge you: Shop Small this Christmas. Support small businesses that offer true uniqueness and authenticity, not only to keep families, artists, and craftspeople afloat, but also to genuinely cherish your loved ones by giving their gifts some thought!
Of course you could just pop out to that same old department store or get tons of mass produced items during that Black Friday sale, but wouldn’t it be nicer to know that your gift was handmade, sustainably sourced, and made to last? That’s the Christmas spirit, if you ask us! Oh, and we have that Black Friday sale too, so don’t worry!
Ok, enough chit chat, let’s get down to it! Here are the top picks for your ultimate Christmas gifts:
The Soft Leather Tote Bag
Of course, we couldn’t start this holiday countdown without mentioning our bestselling, gorgeous, practical, customer favorite, ho ho ho fits everything you’ll ever need Soft Leather Tote.
This tote is 100% handmade from full grain, vegetable tanned, lamb leather. What does that mean? Well, it’s ultra soft, flexible, extra durable, naturally died, biodegradable, low waste, artistry packed… The list goes on and on.
If you’d like all the details about what makes this material so special you should read the following blog posts:

What is full grain leather?
Having the leather basics down will not only help you appreciate our items all the more, but will also make you a more conscious and informed consumer for future purchases. We’re great advocates for conscious consumption here at Junyuan, I’m sure you know by now.
But back to our lovely tote, the perfect gift for her! We could go on and on about why every woman should own a leather tote bag, but we’ll keep it short for the sake of this ultimate gift guide.
The Tote is a staple piece and has been for generations. Trust us, we know the full tote bag history! Ours is extra large, designed with our modern busy days in mind. You’ll need plenty of space to fit all your needs. Yet, despite its size, it’s super lightweight and foldable, if you’d like to store it away or take it on a trip.
This gift will be greatly appreciated for years to come! That is if Santa doesn’t snag it for himself first.
The Classic Duffle Bag
Now here’s a gift that just anyone would be thrilled to unpack on Christmas day: our Classic Duffle Bag.
Our handmade leather duffle was one of our very first products and soon became one of Etsy’s best sellers with hundreds of glowing reviews. And it’s no surprise really, because this holdall is truly top quality.
It is entirely hand stitched, made of full grain vegetable tanned cow leather, which is the most durable and highest quality of leather available on the market. It’s complete with YKK zippers and solid metal hardware – after all, if our leather is such high quality so should be the rest of the bag.
The interior is lined with classic tartan, staying true to our roots and our adored home base in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Now that travel is picking up again our leather cabin bag will make a great gift for your jetsetting friend or so you and your S.O. can take that long awaited getaway.
If Santa were planning that vacation he’s always telling the elves about, this is the bag he’d be packing, now that’s for sure!
The Leather Messenger Bag
Another classic gift that will please anyone focused on their studies or career is our leather messenger bag. This handmade leather briefcase is elegant and practical, and above all, wonderful quality.
Like the duffle, it’s hand stitched and made from full grain vegetable tanned leather, which means this is truly an heirloom piece. You might gift it this Christmas, but after a few years, this satchel can be passed on to other generations. It’s the gift that just keeps giving!
Sure, it’s a chic classic, but we’ve also made ir practical by adding d-rings to the back so that adjustable leather backpack straps can be added to your purchase. This way, if your giftee likes to keep their hands free or bikes to work or school, they can convert their messenger bag into a backpack!
It’s practical on the outside and on the inside, with a laptop sleeve, small compartments for thin quick access items, and pen holders. We really did think of everything with this one!
So if you’re gifting someone who likes to keep things elegant and just a little bit vintage, maybe the leather messenger bag is the ideal purchase for you!
The Lamb Leather Pouch
The leather Crossbody Pouch is the perfect gift for those who are more minimalist, don’t carry much on a daily basis, and are up to date with the latest fashion. This gender neutral mini saddle bag is all the rage with younger customers at the moment.
One of our newest additions to Junyuan Leather Co., the mini pouch is made of vegetable tanned full grain super soft lamb leather, making it so smooth to the touch. Nonetheless, it’s sturdy and keeps its shape due to the interior canvas lining and hand stitching from the inside (aka piping).
This little precious bag is casual and modern, featuring a removable and adjustable webbed cotton strap. Made in our classic cognac, chestnut, or black, this piece goes with just about anything!
The YKK zipper closure makes sure all the items inside are secure while the outer slip pocket allows your gift recipient to store smaller quick access items.
This Christmas, this little handmade leather bag will make a big effect! You’ll be sure to see a smile on your loved one’s face!
Don’t forget leather embossing
As if receiving a handmade Junyuan Leather Co. bag wasn’t enough to result in the perfect Christmas, you can still get your bag embossed to give it that extra personal touch!
Read all about how we emboss our bags in our blog post. This special touch will be the cherry on top, making a good thing great!
Better yet, this year, embossing is on us. We know just how much this little detail is cherished, so we’ve decided not to charge for embossing, in the giving spirit of the holiday season.
To emboss your gift, all you need to do is tick the right boxes before adding to cart and leave your chosen initials in the pop up box that will appear right after. Simple as that!
Naughty or Nice?
We hope you’re on the nice list this year and are lucky enough to give or receive on of our very special items. If you’re looking for something other than the items we’ve listed here, make sure to check out our entire shop!
We have a variety of totes, duffles, briefcases, and small leather bags to choose from. And if that’s still not quite what you’re after, just get in touch and we can quote a custom order for you!
