Fauve Scarf Slides

Square knots are for Squares 

Saddle up that silk scarf or wild rag

With a leather slide that sits so fine

 

A hand-carved slide is truly sculptural. The patterns are cut and molded into the leather using just a few traditional leather carving tools - swivel knife, edge creaser, and modeling spoon - to create one-of-a-kind wearable art.

Fauve patterns draw from the animals, plants, and landscape of New Mexico. For those who like to howl at the moon and kick it unconventional.

 

-All slides are made-to-order in the pattern, color, and hardware of your choosing. 

-Please allow 4-6 weeks lead time as all items are 100% handmade in the artist’s studio, from first cut to final finish coat.

-Sustainable and eco-conscious: We source our carving hide from Wickett & Craig - one of two natural tanneries left in the US. This means the leather is sourced sustainably from US slaughterhouses and tanned with Oak tannins only, no Chromium or other additives.

-Our leather begins raw and is hand-finished in six steps - each piece is oiled, dyed, resisted, antiqued, burnished, and top-coated using natural, water-based dye and finishes. We use Bee Natural, Fenice, Eco-Flo, and Tokonole in our finishing process.

-Choice of Natural Brass or Nickel Plate hardware.
