Just a few of several styles we offer, and of course, we welcome custom work featuring names, phrases, and designs.
Leather, Wood, Metal, Paper
We are a couple of artists who have merged our talents & our lives into an ongoing collection of hand-crafted work, with a little gold-leaf and oxidized metal for style.
Originally from Wisconsin and New York, we've moved around the country and lived in multiple places throughout our lives, until settling in central Texas for several years running now. We work from home & we live to work, so have a look around!
We currently specialize in;
- Articulated Leather Armor
- Wood-cut displays and signage
- Leather-bound books and tomes
- Random vector-based designwork
We especially enjoy custom requests, as it keeps things lively, and we sometimes pick up new skills and techniques along the way.
Thanks for stopping by!

Frequently asked questions
Custom and personalized orders
In most cases, yes! We generally sell two types of items, "stock" and "custom".
A stock item has already been made in a certain style, color, shape, and is fully assembled and completed. There is only one quantity of it. These items, a book for example, cannot have additional features like having a name engraved on the cover.
A custom item is one where you are able to choose additional options, such as dye colors or cover designs. We make these items as they are ordered, and can generally fulfill requests for features not listed.
In either scenario, we accept fully custom/commission orders, where we take your requests and craft them into an entirely unique item!
