Description
Strong and simple camera strap made from vegetable tanned leather
PROCESS:
I hand make all items from my workspace at home, no need for machines. For stitching I use strong polyester thread, coated in beeswax for a tougher finish. The method used is saddle stitching ( using dual needles/thread simultaneously) which creates the strongest bond, reducing the chance of any thread from breaking and unravelling. After stitching, the edges are hand burnished and a final layer of beeswax is added to complete.
PERSONALISATION:
Let me know if you’d like your name or initials stamped onto the item, free of charge! Each letter measures roughly 5mm x 8mm, available in upper case only.
SIZE:
105cm long, 1.5 cm wide
What is Veg Tan Leather?
Vegetable Tanned Leather is the preferred material for many leather workers because, despite the increased cost to buy, it is a beautiful material to work with. Only natural materials such as fruits, leaves, and husks are used to dye the leather, after which, each hide is hung for several weeks. This is compared to the globally dominant method of Chromium tanning, which reduces the process to a mere few days. Whilst certainly time-effective, it is important to me to try to avoid using chrome-tanned leather as the vast use of acidic chemicals in this process is very harmful to the environment, our waterways and oceans. These are things I strongly feel we need to protect, now more than ever.
PRODUCTION & SHIPPING:
