Meet Ella Jackson

Designer & Maker of Australian Leather Goods

Hi, I’m Ella (El), the designer and maker behind every Ella Jackson piece. As a passionate advocate for Slow Fashion, I prioritise high-quality materials, minimalist design, and ethical practices.

Italian Influence
I recently spent six transformative months in Florence, Italy, immersing myself in the art of leather handbag making. This intensive experience refined my skills and inspired fresh techniques that I’m now weaving into my next collection—focused on minimalism, clean lines, and considered design.

A Love of Leather
Leather is a bold, textural medium that pays homage to its origins. I embrace its natural characteristics—growth marks, tonal shifts, and subtle imperfections—as reflections of authenticity. When treated with care, leather evolves beautifully, becoming more distinctive over time.

My Vision
The Ella Jackson label celebrates Tasmanian design, slow production, and a commitment to timeless quality and style. Each piece is designed and made by hand in my studio, with the intention of creating something lasting—something that feels both personal and enduring.
