Vegetable-tanned, lightly cased — damp to the touch, not wet. Use 3 mm leather or thicker. On thinner leather you will need a backing scrap underneath, or the pattern will distort the back.

Chrome-tanned leather will not hold an impression at all — it springs back.

A mallet is enough for most of our stamps. Use a heavy poly or rawhide mallet rather than a light one — weight does the work, so you do not have to swing hard.

Work on something solid. A granite slab under the leather makes far more difference than most people expect.

Borders, basketweave and the all-over textures are designed to tile — each impression seats into the last so the pattern grows without a visible join. Single motifs are meant to stand alone.

Making it: 2-5 business days. Every stamp is cut to order in our workshop — nothing sits on a shelf waiting.

Getting it to you: usually two to three weeks by tracked post to the US and most of Europe. Checkout shows a real delivery window in business days for whichever service you pick.

We do — a small family workshop in Novi Sad, Serbia. The designs are drawn here, the brass is milled here on our own machines, and every tool is finished by hand before it goes in the box.
