János Hamerli
János Hamerli was born in 1840 in Pécs, Hungary. He left his homeland at a young age to learn the noble craft of glovemaking in great European cities. After he founded his workshop, his gloves were in high demand internationally.
He opened shops in Pécs, Budapest and Vienna as well. János Hamerli built up a base for an acclaimed profession in Hungary that time. His legacy evolved to a blooming industry.
The Art of Glovemaking
The traditional glove-making in Hungary originated in the 19th century, when pioneer János Hamerli established his workshop in 1861 introducing the noble craftsmanship to the country.
His name today symbolizes the highest quality of authentic glove-making.
