The Hand Shaped Tray is created with the traditional wet molding technique.
Balance between moisture, pressure and grain allow the leather to be formed by hand, dried and cured for a lasting shape.
For this style, Peter Maxwell stamps each piece of leather by hand with an antique saddle maker's stamp. He then dyes by hand with a Japanese indigo leather dye.This dynamic dye will evolve along with the leather's patina.
As with all MS pieces, we treat with all natural oils and beeswax, then burnish all edges.
Three sizes available:
Small - 4.5" x 4.5"
Medium - 6" x 4"
Large - 9" x 4.5"
XL - 9 x 9” (image pending)
