About us
Argentinian leather goods.
"The Gaucho is more than just a cowboy; he is a cultural icon, symbolizing independence, resilience, and a deep connection to the land." Our leather goods are a testament to this way of life—functional, durable, and deeply rooted in tradition. Today, Gaucho House carries forward this proud legacy, sharing the artistry and cultural heritage of Argentinian leatherwork with the world. Each item we create is not only a practical piece but a tribute to the enduring spirit and craftsmanship of the Argentinian Gaucho.
Origin Story
The story of Gaucho House began in 2021 at the Beef Week Expo in Rockhampton, where Eugenio introduced a collection of Argentinian polo belts and equestrian gear, including saddles and reins, under a different business name. While the event was a success overall, it was the polo belts that truly resonated with the audience. People were captivated by the intricate designs and colours, the cultural significance of the belts, and the superior craftsmanship behind each piece. The overwhelmingly positive feedback highlighted the unique appeal of these handmade accessories and laid the foundation for what would evolve into Gaucho House.
About the founders
Driven by this success, Eugenio and his lifelong friend Lucas envisioned a brand that would not only offer beautifully crafted leather goods but also serve as a cultural bridge between Argentina and Australia. They were inspired to bring the rich tradition of Argentinian leather craftsmanship to the Australian market, showcasing the artistry and passion of the artisans who pour their heart into each creation.
At Gaucho House, we are committed to preserving the heritage of handmade leather goods, offering customers unique, high-quality products that reflect Argentina's cultural richness and craftsmanship. Our mission is to create pieces that connect people to the stories behind them, promoting cultural appreciation through beautifully made leather goods.
A Legacy of Craftsmanship
"We want everyone to experience, if only for a moment,
he deep tradition and passion that artisans infuse into
every item they create."
Leatherworking has a long and celebrated history in Argentina, particularly in rural areas where Gauchos, the iconic Argentine cowboys, have been perfecting this craft for centuries. Gauchos, known for their exceptional skills in horsemanship and leatherwork, would make their own leather goods—saddles, belts, boots—using traditional techniques passed down through generations
