Item details

This leather is a joy to work with. The tanning process retains much of the character of the original skin. Unlike mass produced leather belts with a bland, uniform surface, the natural marks and scars the cow had in life are visible, and make each belt completely unique. I get to know every square inch of the belt, in the several hours that it takes to make.

These belts are hand made from traditionally tanned bridle leather, from J & FJ Baker of Devon, the last remaining traditional tanner in England, on a site that has been a tannery since Roman times. The finest quality hides are prepared using English oak bark, in a process that takes over a year to produce the leather. They are thick, strong, and packed with oils and waxes. This leather is gorgeous – the smell, feel, and look are amazing.
