Members Rocksnake Posted August 5, 2021 Members Report Posted August 5, 2021 (edited) Hello, I'm from China. My English is not good, so I have to use translation software. There may be a syntax error. I'm sorry. I am an amateur cobbler, and these are my works. Welcome to communicate Edited August 5, 2021 by Rocksnake Quote

Members spacedog Posted August 5, 2021 Members Report Posted August 5, 2021 Excellent tooling. Well done Rocksnake. Quote
Members DJole Posted August 5, 2021 Members Report Posted August 5, 2021 Very nice work! I'm curious -- all the tooled pieces you show are the Western floral style. Do you have any that use Chinese motifs and design? Quote

Lobo Posted August 6, 2021 Report Posted August 6, 2021 Your floral carving work is absolutely beautiful, Rocksnake. Best regards! Quote
Members Sheilajeanne Posted August 6, 2021 Members Report Posted August 6, 2021 (edited) "Western floral style" You will usually see this called 'Sheridan style". Excellent work! So, the Chinese like this style, and this what they prefer to buy? Would also like to see some Chinese patterns. Maybe North Americans and Europeans will buy those! I think dragons would look good on leather - you could maybe combine the two styles! Edited August 6, 2021 by Sheilajeanne Quote

I'll do some of that when I'm done, but I haven't found any sales channels in North America or Europe yet. I might need your help! Quote

Members Schick Posted September 7, 2021 Members Report Posted September 7, 2021 Wow. The work you have created is simply beautiful. It is really nice to see people from different countries share a common passion such as leatherwork. I think China is amazing and hope to visit your country one day, before I get too old. :-) Quote
Members Matt S Posted September 8, 2021 Members Report Posted September 8, 2021 Beautiful work. Very clean and graceful. Great contrast and definition. May I ask what sort of cobbling work do you do? Quote
Members JayEhl Posted September 8, 2021 Members Report Posted September 8, 2021 I see beautiful work here and each time I get humbled by the craftsmanship that I see. Yours, in particular, stands out. Very well done! Please post more! Quote
