Our handmade leather goods — including bags, wallets, belts, pouches, accessories and DIY kits — are produced by Hands of Tym Ltd in the United Kingdom using traditional leatherworking techniques.

Foreseeable risks and safe use:

  • Do not overload beyond the intended capacity.

  • Leather may show variation in texture and colour.

  • Keep small components away from children.

  • Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

We supply a range of leathercraft tools intended for use by adults. Some tools are sharp and require additional care.

Foreseeable risks and safe use:

  • Use tools only for their intended purpose.

  • Sharp tools present a risk of cuts or puncture injuries if mishandled.

  • Always work away from the body and hands.

  • Store tools safely with protective covering where appropriate.
