Greetings! We are a small shop that specializes in LARP & Reenactment accessories, and custom guild/group designs. For the past several years, we have been traveling to local festivals, games, and art shows, and also selling some leather goods online. We've been very busy lately trying out a lot of new things, so we are excited to have the chance to put up a gallery here! Thanks for stopping by ~*

These were for an awesome friend in Switzerland- our interpretation of Boromir's bracers from the Lord of the Rings movies, in black and silver with quilted leather padding underneath. This was a replica fan project and we do not own this design. -

Water buffalo question
serendipitydesigns replied to MADMAX22's topic in Exotics, Reptiles, Furs and others
Might anyone know where to look for a nice grade, veg-tan water buffalo calf hide? Just wanted to also say a big thank you to everyone on this site for the knowledge input, and for being so incredibly helpful . The forums are truly an awesome leatherworking resource! -
Hello everyone! Quick question along the lines of this topic- I am loving using Feibings oil dye; made a dark brown veg-tan bracelet and sealed with "Tan Kote", just out of habit. The bracelet got rained on, and to my dismay this made some very strange, warped, darker spots in the leather. The TanKote didnt seem to be a protective finish at all?! Should I stick with using an acrylic based finish over the oil dyes? Thanks in advance for any opinions & help :D

This was done quite a while ago, at the beginnings of our experimenting with tooling leather... it was actually done mostly with rain water to case the leather because we were outside!© © leatherworker.net

These are a series of hand-painted bracelets/cuffs that we have done, based on classic and popular tattoo designs. Alot of research went into these to give the designs a classic look, but have them still be unique. 8oz veg-tan colored with acrylic and dye© ©

Our first try at footwear; someone came to us wanting a sturdy Roman style sandal for Renaissance faires. Veg-tan leather with a Vibram sole. Looking back, I see some things we could have done differently... so I hope to keep trying stuff like this! ( and maybe even make a pair for myself someday... )© © leatherworker.net
