Forged by Hand. Finished for You.
This piece does not exist until you call it into being.
Each buckle begins as raw metal — heated, hammered, and shaped by hand. Every strike leaves a trace. Every mark carries memory. No two are identical, because no two moments at the forge are ever the same.
The leather is cut and finished only after your order is placed. Measured to your body. Edged, burnished, assembled slowly. Not pulled from inventory. Not adjusted from a template. Made for you alone.
For $150, you receive:
• A hand-forged buckle
• Full-grain leather, crafted to your size
• Time, skill, and sweat
This is not fast fashion.
This is process.
This is intention made wearable.
Over time, the leather will soften. The metal will deepen in tone. The piece will age with you — carrying the story of its making and the life you live in it. The last two photos are of my personal belt I’ve worn for more than a year as an example of what your belt will look like after a little love.
After purchase, I’ll reach out for your exact measurement so I can complete it properly.

When can I pick up my finished work
Your work will be done 4 weeks after your class. It takes time for pieces to be fired, painted and fired again.
Can you promise my pottery will survive the kiln?
Unfortunately sometimes pieces are lost during firing. We will do everything we can to protect your pottery but cannot guarantee its survival.
Can I wheel throw with long nails?
Chances are slim. You might want to stick to hand building!
