Item details
NEW: Hand stitched Sami Reindeer and Fish leather bags and pouches.
Reindeer leather is a precious commodity that is difficult to source. Most of the reindeer hides are used by the Saami people for their own clothing and personal use. I am only able to purchase the reindeer leather in small quantities that are sold as scrap leather. I stitch the small pieces together in order to make purses, pouches, reindeer bracelets and other items. Nothing is wasted.
Each purse, pouch and handbag is different depending on the reindeer leather that I currently have on hand.
Vadmal is a type of wool cloth that has been woven and then beaten while wet in a hammer mill for about 8 hours. The beating treatment felts the wool and makes it wind and water resistant. There may be some colour variation in the Vadmal cloth - this is due to the blend of natural sheep wool fibres used in making the vadmal fabric.
The Salmon Skin has been hand tanned using locally sourced Tamarisk bark and leaves.
