Sustainability is sexy

Besides making things to last, I try to make things with as little impact and harm as possible. Foremost is the leather – I source all my leather from Wickett & Craig, one of two natural tanneries left in the US.  This leather comes from slaugherhouses so the hide is a leftover byproduct.  The natural process uses oak bark tannins in lieu of Chromium and other chemicals used to speed the process.  I use water-based stain and antique, and beeswax based oil, resist, and top coat. Finally I make the work entirely by hand, keeping production limited and by nature, not a commodity product that can scale up or be manufactured.
