Case will be crafted by agreed details and measurements, so please let us know about your wishes.

Here is also a small note to hopefully help you mark some first details:

• What is the diameter of the records you would like to fit into the covers?
• For how many records should the case be made for?
• What color would you like?
• Should we plan some sort of hand carved image or pattern onto the leather as a decoration? (That could be almost anything you can imagine).

On the left side there is a simple and nice leather box. This box doesn’t have any wooden parts and it is suitable for smaller and lighter items.

On the right side on this photo there is a wet formed pocket with magnet lock. As it is also slightly baked in the oven, the pocket is a bit harder than leather usually is and provides a safe case but is also meant for lighter and smaller items.

Once we were asked if we could make new leather chair covers. Old covers were decorated by pressing the pattern onto leather but our approach was to handcarve same pattern onto new covers.
So first job was to take photos of the old pattern and redraw it so we could transfer it onto leather before carving it.

First we will wet the leather, then we’ll trace the pattern through the calque and then we can cut the lines out. For the last step we will also mould the pattern so it will become spatial.

It is possible to apply leather dye different ways – this time it was agreed that the edges of carvings will be left lighter so the pattern would be more visible.

In time just oiled vegetable tanned leather will get a bit darkr tone so the obvious contrast won´t last but it still will differ from background.

Leather covers are made out of vegetable tanned leather, dyed with oil dye, oiled and coated with varnish that gives it a bit shine and a bit waterproof.

Leather desk pad is made of thick vegetable tanned leather.

Desk on the photo has a separate plate in the middle of the desk plate. The leather pad is glued onto that separate plate. In this case the leather pad is just above the desk plate as the separate plate is even with the main plate.

For decoration we used hand carved frame on the sides. Property mark of the owner has a place of honor in the corners.

Similar desk pad will be crafted accordingly to the desk measurements and your wishes.
We also welcome all orders for desk pads that are not intended to be glued or fitted into or onto the desk.
