Leather Capsa

We received an e-mail asking if we could make a "capsa."  Basically, a leather cylindar with a fixed bottom and removeable lid with a strap on it.  After much googeling, we found a picture or two, and we were on our way.  The Capsa was to hold first aid tools used in Roman-era reinactments.  It is sometimes refered to as a "bandage box."  Apparently its design is largely hypothetical.  We made this one according to the measurements the customer requested, including making the strap the proper length for the hight of the recepient.  This was built from 8 oz leather.  The sewing was all done with waxed linen thread.  The strap is adjustable without using any metal parts.  And, of course, all the sewing was done by hand.

Red Tote Bag with Plaid Lining

This beautiful tote bag was ordered to celebrate a very important birthday.  The rich red color was chosen to symbolize joy, life, and happiness.

Notice the detailed hand stitching attaching the handle to the bag.

Each and every stitch in the leather was sewn by hand.  The handles are made around

a solid round core of leather, giving them shape and strength.

Tote bags are nice because they hold a lot.  But they are even nicer with a lining that can be closed for a margin of safety and privacy.  This rich black and white plaid suiting material

looks so good with the red bag.

 We are proud to be made in the USA!  And to ship around the world!

Belt, Belt Bag, and Key Strap Set

This matching set is made up of a Slim Fashion Belt, Belt Bag, and Key Strap.  The Belt Bag and Key Strap have snap closures to make attachment to the belt easy.  The clip hook on the Key Strap holds your key ring securely between drives.  Colors, buckles, conchos and belt width will be decided by each individual customer.

Belt Bag

This stylish bag was made to go with the Slim Fashion Belt.  It is just large enough to hold a cell phone and small digital camera.  The customer chose to have her name stamped on the front.  The front clasp is attached with a concho chosen by the customer.

The bag can be made with a divider or as a single compartment.

The snap closure tab on the back of the bag makes it easy to attach the bag to the belt or remove it without having to take off the belt.
