Your desired personalisation will be stamped onto the front of the keyfob.Oak bark tanned leather is tanned using tree bark; this technique is known as vegetable tanning and is gentle and kind to the environment and the hide. Vegetable tanning has been a method used to make leather for thousands of years. Each hide is unique and different from the last, having gained the characteristics of the animal it once was, and due to its organic nature colours can vary from one hide to another.  It has exceptional qualities and retains the hide’s natural aesthetics like growth lines, grains, marks and scars which as a maker I celebrate within my designs. Vegetable tanned leathers absorb the traces of our life, maturing and ageing with a personal expression of naturalness and truth. Over time this leather will give a beautiful patina and an unmistakable warm shade that becomes more intense with the passing of time and daily use.

    Inspiration and Techniques

    Using traditional tools and techniques from days of old saddlery craft, Katy works hard to design and craft items that are simple and traditional, robust yet practical. Inspired by the old ways of crafters, and the want to move away from a mass produced, throwaway society. Katy believes that the answer to a more sustainable future is to minimise short lived and replaceable items and instead make long lasting and repairable goods, using locally sourced materials.
