Welcome to my shop.
I hand-make my quality leatherwork with passion in a completely different way than the way 99 % of the way others do.
It is the art of transforming each piece of leather with oils and conditioners to bring its best qualities alive and then transforming it further into a functional piece.
This can only be accomplished by hand with muscle experienced manipulation and strength.
The results are worth it the item will last much longer.
There is no reason that you should have to replace any of my hand-oiled cow hide belts soon, and my Bull/Toro belts fall into my lifer category.
I custom size each belt with holes closer together than an inch with 3 or 4 holes larger and smaller than the main hole and finish them with my trademark cut point.
A belts proper sizing is general 2 to 4 inches above the pant size as most pants are not really at our waist.
My leather bags, purses and jackets are made to be heirlooms and will last more than one generation.
My theme is “quality in function and design”
I create all my original patterns and styles and techniques.
Many of my techniques are so innovative that they have never been used before .... ever.
One such Technique I call “Sculpt Print ”. This is where I relief sculpt into dozens of different materials, such as wood, stone etc. And handprint between 5 and 25 layers of my custom dyes to create “Wearable Art”. Each material prints differently, and each material sculpts differently.
I make my own Dye mixtures and they have an endless spectrum of possibilities.
Take your time browsing through and do not hesitate to contact me for any query you may have.
