Hand-Stitched Leather Picnic Set

Update of the turn-of-the-century picnic set for an equestrian.  Stainless steel insulated containers wrapped in natural saddle leather with a hand-tooled custom monogram, along with a hand-stitched double carabiner.  It can all be treated with the same conditioner as the saddle, and will age beautifully.




The canisters are all stitched with a classic gaucho weave.

Arts & Crafts Oak Table with Tooled Leather Top

When we found this Arts & Crafts Oak Table in the Adirondacks, only remnants of the original leather were left.  We added a new hand-colored leather top, and hand-tooled a Candace Wheeler carp on the top to give it a little more character.
