Founded in 1934 by the German emigrant Gerard Ettinger, the eponymous company is still family-owned and run.〔http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/1404161/Gerard-Ettinger.html〕 The company designs and traditionally manufactures small leather goods for various British and international brands and retailers. It also has developed its own brand (Ettinger), which is distributed internationally, especially in Japan.〔http://www.the-montebury.com/interviews/robert-ettinger-ettinger-london〕〔http://www.ettinger.jp/company/index.html〕 The company has its own leather factory in Walsall, but has kept its head office in London. G Ettinger Ltd was awarded a Royal Warrant to HRH The Prince of Wales in 1996 and has also made gifts under licence for the Wimbledon Championships since 1992.〔http://www.ettinger.co.uk/heritage/〕 == Company history == Ettinger began as a British importer of leather goods and luxury gifts from continental Europe. England then still had an important leather industry, and it was in London that the finest leather goods were made.〔http://www.bahs.org.uk/14n1a2.pdf〕〔http://www.localhistories.org/london.html〕〔http://www.london-footprints.co.uk/wkbermondseyadd.htm〕〔http://www.lyons-family.co.uk/Lyons/bermondsey-history/Bermondsey-photos/bermondsey-leather.htm〕〔http://leathersellers.serversure.net/content.php?pid=95〕 From the 1950s to the '80s, Ettinger gradually strengthened its manufacturing base in London and then in Walsall, still under the helm of "Gerry" Ettinger. Robert Ettinger, Gerry's eldest son, took over in 1990. The company specialised further into small upmarket leather goods and developed the Ettinger brand, notably in Japan. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「G Ettinger Ltd.」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
