All designs were conceptualized and patterned by the artist. Each piece of leather is hand cut from top grain vachetta and black oil tan leathers. Cut edges are hand finished by sealing and burnishing - in the case of vachetta, or priming and dyeing - in the case of Black Oil Tan. Pieces are then stitched, using a combination of industrial machines for seaming, and hand stitching for applying embellishments and details.

My handbags are classic and functional. Each piece is hand cut. I use various textures of cow, lamb and pig hide. My work includes burnt in images and embellishments. Pieces are stitched and lined with various interior pockets.
