Welcome to our shop ✨
Based in the beautiful historic city of York, England, our work is inspired by the rich heritage and architecture of the city — especially the iconic York Minster — combined with the bold character and timeless style of traditional American tattoo art.
Every piece you see here is truly one of a kind. We carefully source vintage leather bags and completely strip, restore, and rework them by hand before individually drawing each design directly onto the leather ourselves.
No prints, no stencils, no mass production — every artwork is hand drawn one by one by me, Joby Lewis, making each bag completely unique with its own character and story.
Once the artwork is finished, the leather is waxed and polished multiple times to restore and protect the bag, giving beautiful vintage pieces a brand new life.
Alongside our bags, we also create hand-drawn leather wallets, purses, and small travel jewellery boxes — all individually crafted with the same care and attention to detail.
Please check out our Instagram to see behind-the-scenes videos of the designs being drawn directly onto the leather and to follow the creative process from start to finish.
Thank you so much for supporting handmade art, craftsmanship, and small businesses.
