Stories woven into leather and light: Timeless home accessories collection by Bobby Aggarwal for PortsideCafe

PortsideCafé furniture studio, celebrated for its exquisite craftsmanship and contemporary elegance, unveils an exceptional range of home accessories, especially, curated for the upcoming festive season by the visionary designer Bobby Aggarwal. Known for his effortless integration of traditional materials with modern design, Bobby’s creations for PortsideCafé showcase a perfect blend of classic charm and inventive artistry. This collection weaves his talent for storytelling through design, elevating everyday objects into elegant, functional art, and celebrating the mastery of craftsmanship in every piece.

In Bobby Aggarwal’s accessories collection for PortsideCafé, each product tells a story of thoughtful design, impeccable craftsmanship and luxurious living, bridging the gap between past inspirations and present-day usability. 

Bobby’s approach begins with a clear vision, addressing what appeals to him personally & instinctively, which is further translated into a holistic understanding of the desired effect for a larger audience that spans generations! Whether it’s the historic charm of hand-stained leather or the boldness of Brutalist architecture, these accessories offer more than just function—they are expressions of artistic legacy and modern artistry. Through this collection, PortsideCafé reaffirms its dedication to creating pieces that resonate deeply with both design enthusiasts and everyday users, transcending trends and standing the test of time.

The Leather Bridge Set, a testament to Bobby's meticulous eye for detail, is crafted from vegetable-tanned leather and lined with PortsideCafé’s signature linen print. This set exudes both elegance and practicality, combining form and function in perfect harmony. Its antique finish is an ode to a bygone era, while its sleek design ensures it feels at home in any modern space. Similarly, the Coasters in this collection, made from the same vegetable-tanned leather, offer a sophisticated touch to any gathering. Their handcrafted nature highlights the luxury inherent in every item, bringing warmth and class to everyday moments.

Elevating workspace aesthetics, the Desk Organiser and Pencil Case are ideal companions for those who appreciate functional beauty. Crafted from fine leather and featuring convenient compartments, these pieces help create an orderly and visually appealing desk setup. Their design draws on Bobby’s ethos of luxury living, combining a love for artisanal craftsmanship with the demands of a contemporary lifestyle. The Watch Box, with its removable tray and four carefully designed compartments, offers a distinguished home for timepieces. It brings the romance of vintage accessories into the modern world with understated luxury.

For those who cherish visual storytelling, the Hand-Printed Leather Photo Frames bring a touch of opulence to personal memories. Adorned with delicate touches of gold and bold, vibrant colours these frames are an artistic tribute to the lavish styles of yesteryear. Every frame, with its rounded corners and intricate detailing, serves not only as a place for photographs but as a decorative statement in its own right. These photo frames, available in a range of sizes, perfectly encapsulate Bobby’s design philosophy—merging luxury with practicality and historical influences with modern sensibilities.

In the more playful realms of creativity, Bobby’s Boheme Chic Leather Mug reflects a daring departure from the ordinary. Inspired by studio pottery, this piece blurs the lines between utility and decor. Although it’s not meant for holding liquids, this mug’s purpose lies in its ability to transform any space with its leather craftsmanship and modern flair. Whether used as a vessel for dry flower arrangements or displayed as a standalone piece, it invites a reimagining of everyday objects as works of art.

The Elbow Lamp and Fountainhead Lamp, monumental pieces crafted with birch ply and infused with Brutalist influences, offer bold, statement lighting that merges artistic innovation with function. The Fountainhead Lamp, in particular, with its clean concentric lines and warm ombré finish, showcases Bobby's ability to translate architectural concepts into home ware that feels both powerful and serene. These lamps, while embodying the rugged beauty of brutalism, bring warmth and harmony to modern interiors!
