NEW! Leather bowls for sale
The newest member of the Outsider collection is what I'm calling a "leather bowl".
It comes in two sizes (small and large) and its purpose, though tricky to nail down could be described as any of these:
plant holder
key 'n phone catcher
candle holder
fruit bowl
pen 'n pencil holder
...
Each piece is handmade and lovingly finished with a beeswax conditioner. Because the leather is not dyed, it will darken as you use it and touch it.
The purse: plain and simple.
Last week I made a purse for a friend. She needed something that would hold important books and a few personal items. She also preferred a long shoulder strap for easy bicycle riding. So, with simple tools and several evenings I came up with this.
This vegetable tanned leather will age beautifully with years of use, as will the brass hardware.
