Tooled Leather
What do men want when designing an office or a bedroom?
"Cornice's, jewel tones, and leather."
When designing an office or a bedroom for a man - my mind usually thinks cornice for window treatment. It has clean lines, with a contrast welt to outline the design. Sharp contrast colors usually in jewel tones give a striking attractive design. Leather is a natural favorite of men. This has lead us to design hand–tooled leather rods and cornices using European hides we select. They can be left natural or stained into beautiful colors mixed with hand–tooled scenes, which you select for the cornices. Our easy slide track is in place in the cornice if chosen to be used. It can be 1 or 2 tracks, depending on the projection allowance. The design can be leaves, snakes, birds, pheasants,-endless possibilities. Leather has a rich, warm look and ages beautifully. A resist coloring can be used, solid coloring, or natural.
This next 2" PVC leather covered rod can be entirely hand-tooled leather or combined with hand stamping on end areas as shown stained a warm brown. Leather staining is according to your specifications. End caps and brackets are also hand tooled or stamped. The cafe material shown uses suede squares, crocheted edging, and leather tooled buttons. Additional ceramic button designs are shown on denim shirt with an additional large range of selections — whatever your design needs demand.
Leather brings to mind—saddles and horses. We have designed horse hooks to accommodate the need for hanging items in bathrooms, bedrooms, or mudrooms wherever this leather rod is used. Hooks hung with our adhesive (no screws necessary) may be removed using a drapery steamer.
We have had requests for children's name belts, watchbands, dog and cat name collars, and switchplate covers. Your designs can be musical, whimsey, whatever.
