| Tattooing |

 

The decorative and detailed line-work is tattooed onto the leather (with a traditional tattoo machine) The design is traced into the surface of the leather. A line, which is the width of one needle is tattooed into the leather. The lines are then gone over until the required line width is achieved. This makes it a very labour intensive process.

To bring out the line-work and beauty of the leather, leather working techniques are used (e.g. tooling & embossing) Each piece is hand finished by bevelling, dying, burnishing and buffing the edges & surface.
