Honors

"Anything hand crafted is far more valuable than anything made by a machine. A hand crafted item contains not only the base ingredients but a part of someone's life, their psyche and their dreams."

Feb 2020: Deadline for NEW ORDERS extended through Feb 28! I'm still running at 8-12 weeks on new orders.

Adding a Shopping Cart

I am currently adding a shopping cart to this website. This will take some time as I have to add each item separately so many items don't yet have active ordering buttons. You can still order them of course; visit my standard ordering page here for details.

Now on Etsy!

I do have some already made in stock items at my Etsy store! Click here to visit!

I can't express how absolutely fantastic they are; My father just loved them. They're so detailed and exquisite, I can't thank you enough for your work on them!

Mail order customer Marc wrote: "Where do I start?? The postman just dropped off my 'Bracers of Gondor', I must say that it was WELL WORTH THE WAIT! I am in awe of your craftsmanship on this item. They look right off the sleeve's of Aragorn and Boromir themselves. I am a million times overjoyed and could not put them down for almost an hour. Your attention to detail and the fact that these are handmade just blows me out of the waters of the west. You must be from the White City itself. You have really made my year and I thank you so much for taking your time with these. Great, great, great work!!!!!! - Marc of the Nashville Shire"

PROTESTERS take notice:

No animals were hurt or killed for the creation of these products; leather is a by-product of the meat industry! If I didn't make stuff out of it, it'd just get thrown away and wasted!
