Dyeing Question

[Bruno Rock]

Hi guys, quite new in leatherworking and always interested in new techniques, I've bumped in this picture of a belt, and I'm wondering how to make the double tone dyeing at the edges, since I have the same veiner stamping tool, I want to make a belt like this, so I am askying myself is just dyed using a little brush or there's a special method?

I was asked also, how to make a red circle with a maker's mark on it, and I answered you can mark the leather with a something circular and then carefully dye it with a brush that area and when is dried you can mark it. Am I wrong?

Thanks for any friendly advice.

Cheers from Italy

Looks like the edges were dyed using a small brush from what I can see of the pic.

I would tend to agree with Tex , As this is what it appears has been done.

It is a nice effect, and something different than what I have seen lately.

As far as a makers mark goes, t They are something like a 3D stamp, if you'll search the advertisements above

you'll realize there are several makers who stand ready to make you a makers mark as you want it.

Hope your questions have been answered. ??? ---------------------------------- Wild Bill46

Thank you guys for the answers, basically is main dyed in brown and then, with a little brush, dyed in black, I'll soont try that on a guitar strap.
