Very much enjoying getting back to the craft! The latest development- soft suede linings. It gives both comfort and a design opportunity for a flash of colour, and I'm keen to see where it goes.

Using mystery braids as the wraps in a wrap cuff design was a brilliant idea from this client! And of course combined with a matching headband for the complete look. I love working with this shade of leather as it takes the antiquing stain so well and makes the details sing.
Thanks to Ashton Powell for asking me to build his ideas and modelling them so dashingly.

I loved making these little matched Jackalopes! The client's request for bright pastel colours prompted me to expand my leatherwork skills from dyes into paints, and I'm so glad they did because I love the end result.

(This exact design would not be replicated as it belongs to a specific character, but similar items could be made on request.)

FOR SALE: Knotwork Bracers in scarlet £70 + postage if required.

Perfect for a bright and bold warrior, the colour is blood red with a smokey weathered tint.

These are hand sewn, carved, tooled and dyed veg tan leather. I wanted a way to showcase how beautiful the tooled knotwork from my previous smaller pieces could look, and the addition of another layer of leather makes the armour pleasingly chunky and tough feeling.

The buckled straps are adjustable between arm circumferences of 19.5cm to 27cm (lower strap), 24cm to 31cm (upper strap).
The wrist to elbow length of the bracer is 19.5cm.

Very excited to show the first pieces of armour for sale from my workbench! Selling this set for £50 + postage.

These bracers are completely unique and hand tooled, carved and painted. Even if I make this design again there will never be others identical to these, as I work in a hand drawn method that suits the wild woodland style. These thorns and brambles would be perfect for a ranger, a fey, a druid or a celtic-inspired character- maybe you have one in mind?

They are 3mm thick veg-tan leather with a beeswax finish and brass fittings. Although the inside is smooth, they also look amazing with some fur or a sleeve wrapped beneath.

This set would fit medium-large adventurers best: lower strap adjusts between 18-28cm and upper strap adjusts between 26-36cm. Length of the bracers at the longest point is 21.5cm.

If these exact ones aren't quite right for you, ask me about commissions!
