I love my job, and products made with my hands, reflect this. I have long appreciated the good things out of the skin. In August 2008 I started collecting vintage watches, the first period and the Second World War. Standard leather straps is not possible to use the clock in those years. Visiting local craftsmen making leather products, but not satisfied with your needs months studied sewing techniques and treatment of the skin at the well-known masters. In 2014, I bought a pair of shoe knives, glue, leather trim, made a number of unsuccessful attempts and finally got a result that would not be ashamed to wear and display. Since then I began my fascination with leather. Working head Various photographic services, we were prepared for their photobook customers. Customers are constantly asked personalized exclusive cover of expensive and high-quality materials like Inobili recognized and Cartotecnica firms. So in February 2014 I made ​​my first cover for photobooks from the skin. Two months later, I made ​​the first decorative insert the front cover photo books in the technique of "hand-engraved leather." As a keen watch, bookbinding and study features of work with the skin, these passions came together. Over time, I created a web page with their works. www.tmvk.org Actively sharing knowledge and experience on Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/KondratenkoVictor I would be delighted to hear criticism, advice and exchange of experience.
