• Prices may change without notice. 

Handcrafted leather goods

• Are all crafted in Australia, wallets are crafted in Singapore, and a couple of designs crafted in the USA. We use traditional French and modern leather crafting techniques. 

• I work extremely closely with my artisans and they operate as established artisan entities. This means, there is no opportunity for any exploitation and hence complying with any employment laws. 

• My handbag fittings are made-to-order in Italy and my premium zips are made and customised in Switzerland.

• I also work closely with other local businesses to deliver the final product, like my premium packaging. 

• Pieces priced at AUD 188 and under will receive seasonal packaging.

Care for Exotic Leather

• To find out more, read here. 

• I only offer monogramming on my made-to-order L I N 8 pieces. This must be advised upon order.
• Monogramming is normally done upon cutting of leather prior to assembly of pieces. Simply to lower any erroneous risks, as the materials are dear to both you and I.
• As I respect the natural finish of leathers, I do not monogram on exotic leathers.

• Ready-made pieces.
• I do not offer monogramming on pieces available in stock.

• I can do blind monogramming on selected accessories. 
• Please advise upon ordering
• This will require a nominal fee of $28.00
• Please contact me to find out more.

• Pieces that are available upon request are subject to a waiting list and my availability.
