Here in The Leather Shed, I make beautiful and long-lasting leather goods including bags and belts, wallets and purses, book covers and wine holders from the best-quality vegetable-tanned leather. Each product is entirely handmade from leather hides sourced in the UK.

I cut out the pieces, dye and stain them, edge and decorate them and hand-sew every item. Some items can be personalized with initials or simple designs if you order something to be made from scratch.

Vegetable-tanned leather is tanned using only natural plant materials such as tree bark, making it much more eco-friendly. This process takes longer than chrome tanning but uses none of the harmful chemicals.

My leather gifts will mellow and soften with age, making them ideal to give as long-lasting presents to friends and family – or just as a treat to yourself!

I hope you will enjoy owning your leather goods as much as I enjoyed making them.
