Leather Seats For Antique Rocking Chairs
These seats have a round hole in the seat of the rocking chair. Often the original seat has been worn through and needs to be replaced. We have made the leather seats out of a heavy firm leather and decorate it with a simple design but you have to install it yourself with upholstery tacks.

Reenactment Belts, Pouches, Straps
We have made many pieces of leather reenactment products in the past for events and historical sites. Quite a bit of work in the past was done for the Halifax Citadel National Historic Site and the Royal Nova Scotia International Tattoo. Some pieces made are very authentic with the customer supplying us with special custom cast brass parts and period correct tanned leather. For other pieces, we use our own leather and match the original as closely as possible. For shows, sometimes pieces are made to look real when viewed by the audience from a long distance but are not functional to keep costs down.

Custom Order Production Runs
If you have a small product that you need done in quantities, we might be able to produce it for you. Although they were not in our line of regularly produced items, we have had special requests in the past for leather microphone holders for uniforms, leather rings die cut by us and cemented into solid brass coasters supplied by the customer, gas card holders for trucking companies, leather company labels for woodwork products. In this picture, a customer supplied us with custom cast money clips to be implemented into a production run of custom made leather credit card holders.
