Pittswood - Hand-turned Pens and Leathercraft goodies from Wales.

Hello and welcome to our little Folksy store 'Pittswood'
We are a husband and wife duo (Christine & Kelvin) and make handturned pens and leathercraft goodies from our home in the beautiful valleys of South Wales.
Although we are both at home all day and enjoy each others company enormously, its nice to have your own little retreat and we both have our own work-space sanctuaries. I'm tucked away in our little spare bedroom filled with the wonderful scent of leather and Kelvin has a garden workshop filled with the fresh smell wood shavings!

About Pittswood.....
In 2015 we built a garden workshop in preparation for Kelvins retirement and at first he intended just to make Nautilus shells from wood, but on reading an article on pen turning he purchased a woodturning lathe and decided to make pens instead.
He particularly enjoys using woods that had a previous life as another object as this really adds history and character to the pens.
I also started working with wood the same year, making woodcarvings and lovespoons and after seeing Kelvin work on the lathe I, myself also became interested in doing some woodturning and made bowls, platters and goblets so we decided to come up with a collective name for our woodcrafts and we came up with the name 'Pittswood'.

In 2016 I tried my hand at leatherwork and I absolutely fell in love with the craft and I enjoy combining my other interest for Celtic and Medieval art within some of my leathercraft..
