Inspiration and Techniques

Jessie is drawn to the natural textures and character of her materials, particularly the marks, scars and variations found in leather and stone. She works with high-quality vegetable-tanned leather, finished with beeswax, and values keeping her process as natural and low-impact as possible.

Working on a small scale allows her to know exactly where her materials come from and to minimise waste. Rather than hiding imperfections, she embraces them, allowing each piece to reflect the authenticity of the material. Over time, the leather will age beautifully and develop a natural patina.
