Gorgeous Ladies Leather Journal from Oberon Design

Gorgeous Ladies Leather Journal from Oberon Design

oberon design leather journalToday I have a wonderful company to introduce you to called Oberon Design. This company makes all of their leather and pewter products in Santa Rosa, California and they have been in business since the 1970’s. The company built their reputation making refillable journal covers that are made out of hand tooled leather but they also make beautiful hand cast pewter jewelry items and handmade leather wallets. The company does not carry inventory and each of their leather items are handmade ‘to order’. Their leather is custom tanned for them in the good old USA. The boutique tannery they work with produces natural, drum dyed, unpainted leather for them that works well with their tooling and embossing work. The leather dyes that they use are produced in the USA and Britain and are considered much safer than those produced in Asia.

The Oberon Design pewter products are hand cast in their studio shop in Santa Rosa and they use only the purest, lead-free, food grade Britannia pewter. This pewter can be cast at very high temperatures that result in a low tarnish, high polish finish. Oberon Design carves their own molds and cast their own products in small batches of 6-12 pieces at a time which insures quality. Everything about this company is super impressive!

If you have been following our blog at all for the past 1 1/2 years you will have read several reviews that Chris and I have done for the great folks over at Oberon Designs. In addition, they have sponsored several giveaways for all of our wonderful readers and today…they are sponsoring another one!
