Elegant Moments Lig & Leather

HistoryWe started our business two years ago with ETSY, got a website and have been doing craft shows ever since.SpecialtiesHand made knotted and braided leather goods all made from cow and kangaroo hide which include: Jewelry Carved, tooled and painted masks Dragon and knotling dolls Wallets and bags Accessories such as: key fabs and hair cups The work that I do comes from the American and British whaling ships in the 1800's and a small chunk comes from the Gauchos (Mexican cowboys). Knots were a crucial part of the ship and every sailor had to learn every different kind of knot and their function. Today, the importance and even the use of knots has died down a significant amount, yet there are still decorative knots being used. That is the main focus of this craft. Each knot is hand tied using a single strand and ends where it began. All of the leather for jewelry and mask headbands are hand stripped, beveled, dyed, and carnauba creamed (conditioner). Finally, each finished product gets an antique finish and then a buff out with a horse hair brush and sheep wool. *Custom orders are welcome. A lot of the items in the pictures are custom orders only, since we do not have them in stock anymore. We will do the best that we are able to match the item that you are interested in.
