Two wild fallow stag hides from the Shropshire borderlands.
Hand prepared slowly and traditionally in my cottage tannery.
Each hide carries its own markings, scars, tones, and story lines from a fully lived wild life. No two are ever alike. These are hides, that have been worked by hand, with time, care, and deep respect for the animal and land they came from.
Prepared, and ready for makers, drum birthing, ceremonial craft, rattles, ritual objects, or those who simply wish to work more closely with real material and the old ways of making.
Both hides are:
— Wild British fallow stag
— Ethically sourced from the Shropshire borderlands
— Hand scraped and prepared by myself
— Rich with natural markings and variation
— Ready to ship
There is something profoundly different about working with a hide that still carries the memory of weather, woodland, movement, and season within it.
Hide A - measurements are: 120 x 62 cms
Hide B - measurements are: 115 x 55 cms
