My latest creation is a 2 in 1- hand made leather vessel/bowl
Designed to be used either side for a different decorative look

 

A beautiful OOAK handmade vessel I created from soft leather scrap and reclaimed fabrics from vintage sources such as tableclothes and doilys. All moulded together with  French 1950′s dressmakers ribbons.
I use mine to display my antique & vintage button collections, shells and French coins on shelves and tables.
