The beginning of my work dates back to 2014. At that time I made watch straps and small leather goods. Today I am engaged in the production of luxury leather goods to order. Together with each client, I find the best solution, so the process is always creative.I use traditional methods and do only hand sewing. I closely follow the trends in the leather business. Here you can see my work, tools and materials used.
My goal is to share what I have learned in my nearly 10 year career as a professional leather trader/craftsman/creator. Join me on this journey of craftsmanship, life and art in my creative studio located in Ukraine.

My interest in making (tailoring) bespoke garments began as a child when I watched my mum working in the tailoring business. I saw how she worked with the client, with her inherent neatness and attention to detail to create unique products.
In August 2008, when I became immersed in collecting vintage watches from the First and Second World War, I was faced with the need to customise straps for vintage watches. Vintage watches do not structurally allow for the fitting and convenient replacement of modern straps, and I had to find a solution. After visiting local leather ateliers but not satisfying my need, I spent years learning sewing and leatherworking techniques from recognised masters in the world.
In 2014, after acquiring my first tool and leather, I made many failed attempts and finally had a result that I was not ashamed to wear and show. Since then, I have been constantly working to improve my craftsmanship.
Over time I have learnt techniques for sewing and restoring leather goods, expanding my arsenal of skills and creativity.
