Meet this striking lady. She is born from a commission from a recent event!
​A lovely customer spotted our original dragon design on the stall, which was styled as a hip/belt bag.She had a vision: Adapting the design into a shoulder handbag with bold, striking red dragon details contrasting on sleek black leather.
​James got straight to work figuring out the technical craft needed to redesign the pattern and make her vision a reality. And ta-da! Here she is in all her glory.

We love that our customer has personified this creation, and we are completely in love with how fierce and striking she (the bag) turned out.

Thank you for trusting us with your vision and showing such appreciation and interest in the craftsmanship.

Tap, tap, tap to bring the dragon to life. 🐲

This method is used to add texture and detail to plain leather. The leather is first cased (soaked and rested), this softens the fibers allowing the stamps to bite deep into the hide.

This piece will form part of an exciting project coming together in the workshop over the next couple of days.

Sound ON to hear the process. 🔊
