We've written about the clothing and custom watches from Bamford & Sons before; now the bastion of top-drawer British style is launching its first dedicated accessories collection for fall. The standout piece is this collectors' edition backgammon set (above) in a lockable calfskin case with signature perforation detail on the leather and metal hardware. Individually hand-finished using the finest responsibly-sourced materials, including traceable skins from French tanneries, it's priced at for $4,995. The set incorporates elements of the new collection's two themes; the first, Concours d' Elegance, represents the alluring world of sports cars and racing, with calfskin finished in black and Ferrari red. The second, Wooton, is dedicated to an active country lifestyle and its many pursuits, from work to leisure, rendered in unlined suede and leather associated with equestrian pursuits.
