THOMAS LYTE NEWS

The Thomas Lyte men's collection includes stylish silver cufflinks,
luxury gifts and leather accessories for both travel and business, all
of which represent exceptional quality and a modern English style. They
are likely to be a big favourite for Christmas this year.
The Thomas Lyte Modern Heritage Award attracted over 200 entrants in
2009, part of an initiative launched by Thomas Lyte
in partnership with the Crafts Council to offer young designer-makers a
platform. British craftsmen are asked to take inspiration from English
culture and create functional pieces out of silver, fine metals, glass,
wood or leather.
Thomas Lyte was an Official Gift Provider for the 2009 BAFTA Film
Awards, providing exclusive leather notebooks to nominees.

THOMAS LYTE BACKGROUND

Thomas Lyte is a modern, ethical, English luxury goods brand with an
obsession for fine craftsmanship. Working with the finest leather and
silver, the collection is a mix of original and elegant quality
accessories and luxury gifts, displaying real attention to detail
throughout. All Thomas Lyte products are designed by English designers,
with many produced in the brand's London workshop. Great care is taken
to ensure that the crafting of leather and silver exploits neither the
environment nor Lyte's skilled craftsmen.
The guiding principles behind the style and defining shape of many
Thomas Lyte products were distilled from the core values of the brand.
They are based on three icons of English heritage; The Spitfire, The
Pillar Box and The Helter Skelter.
