Bespoke leatherwork using time-honoured craftsmanship—designed just for you.
The Craft of Leather Carving
For centuries, artisans have carved intricate designs into leather, creating one-of-a-kind pieces that blend function with art. The process begins with specialist knives to carve the design, followed by beveling to add depth. Each piece is then hand-painted with leather-specific paints and finished with antique rub for shading—resulting in a richly textured and completely unique item.


Tailored to Your Vision
Using these age-old techniques, I can carve and tool personalized designs into a wide range of leather goods. Whether it’s a belt featuring your company logo, a silhouette of your favorite car, or a dog collar with a name and pattern—each project is truly bespoke. Every design has its own challenges, from the initial sketch to the final paintwork, so I’ll need some details to provide an accurate quote.
