Leather Lei Collection | Tidal Theory
Created by Samantha Hook, Owner and Artist behind Tidal Theory and Co-Owner of Hook & Hide
The beautiful alignment of culture and craft. Harmoniously, between leather workers, and lei makers. Sowing seeds of our upbringing into everything we make, and watching it bloom for the next generation.
The leather lei exudes a sense of timelessness and strength, making it a striking accessory for special occasions or ceremonial events.
Each lei is thoughtfully handcrafted with full grain vegetable tanned leather, molded and strung on beautiful natural dyed silk by Okbet Supply and spaced with solid wood beads.
Minimalist Wallets | Open Sea Leather Co.
"With 20 different models, 25 colors and seven types of leather to choose from—including smooth and matte Italian calf leather, kangaroo, python, fish, gator and shell cordovan—it’s easy to see why the bespoke wallet experience from Open Sea Leather Co. stands out.
Leathersmith Michael Bluth handmakes his pieces out of Hook & Hide, the Chinatown leather goods shop he shares with fellow leather label Tidal Theory. There, you can flip through a swatch book, examine stitch styles, check out the 20 colors of waxed Poly thread available and place an order, which will be ready for pickup or shipping in about a week. Prices start at $54 and the range includes everything from simple card wallets and billfolds to styles with penholders and money clips. —BT"
