1. Choosing materials
Currently, we are using semi-leather goods (cowhide) imported from Taiwan.
2. Designing patterns
Before starts working on the leathers, like any other arts, we need sketches, references, inspirations to design the patterns.
3. Tracing patterns
We trace the lines and patterns on the leathers as references.
4. Stamping/embossing patterns
At this stage, we emboss the patterns on the leathers using different kinds of stamping tools varied in patterns and sizes. It is a time-consuming progress.
5. Dyeing/colouring products
Now we can start colouring or dyeing the leathers.
6. Applying latex and polishing wax
Latex is used to fix the colours and ensure that they last longer. Polishing wax is a protection layer which provides a shining surface.
7. Hand sewing
To use strings or straps while stitching the leathers is depends on the situations. Hand sewing technique is sometimes used as decoration.
8. Adding accessories
Some accessories are needed while some are meant for decorations.
9. Finishing touches
Final touches including refining the edges, backside and interior of the leathers.
10. Complete!
