Clients and Collaborators

Many of our hides have been used in projects that celebrate Scotland’s heritage, support creative use of natural materials, and bring historical craft to life.

Working with makers, historians, museums, and creative professionals allows our leathers and hides to carry forward centuries of Scottish knowledge and practice into the present day.
