Gibier leather craftsmanship (deer) 3rd head 2 times

Atsushi Takamizawa's craftsmanship, which mainly introduces framepouch. I will introduce the production of the third deer.

First of all, about Mr. Takamizawa's production and gibier leather.

Natural wild birds and beasts by hunting, so-called gibier. It seems that most of the skin is thrown away as meat spreads more than before. Mr. Takamizawa uses tanned gibier hides that he purchases directly from hunters.

Wild deer and bears live in the forests of Japan. Leather that tells you about the hunting season and region. Tannin tanning. dyed black. Wrinkles and small scratches that can be avoided under normal circumstances, but are difficult to handle as a product. Remnant patchwork after cutting. How to use up all the leather of one animal. Original hardware. Finishing treatment of metal fittings that allows you to enjoy the same aging as leather.

It's simply beautiful without saying anything, but behind it lies Mr. Takamizawa's thoughts and unusual craftsmanship.

We purchase one leather from Mr. Takamizawa and handle it in the form of making it using that leather.

January 2019 is the first time. At this time, a deer (January 2019, Wakasa Town, Tottori Prefecture) and a bear (January 2019, Iwaizumi Town, Iwate Prefecture). Due to the convenience of the product and the leather, the initial delivery + additional patchwork was completed in two laps.

The second time will start in January 2020. After making it, I checked the scraps and thought about the product, and I used up most of the leather in a total of 4 laps. Previously, I divided it into four articles and introduced it in detail.

This is the third time. From this time, the title is the 3rd one to make it easier to understand. 1st time in October 2020. The second time will be in September 2021 due to Mr. Takamizawa's busy production and the convenience of metal fittings. I will introduce it all in one article here.

[Third cow, October 2020 (Deer, Wakasa-cho, Tottori) Leather before production]

General leather products purchase leather from a leather shop. Although we know the tanning and processing production areas, it seems that there are many cases where it is difficult to determine the region when tracing back to the raw skins. In the case of Mr. Takamizawa, he purchases directly from hunters, so he knows the hunting season and region, and it is written on the tag. The skin is tanned with tannin and dyed with sumi to create this "leather".

We select one animal from Mr. Takamizawa's stock of leather, discuss the product to make, and request the production.

This time, deer were hunted in Wakasa Town, Tottori Prefecture in October 2020. Mr. Takamizawa took a picture before starting production!
Hunted, tanned and sumi-dyed, leather in pristine condition on 1st, cutting in progress on 2nd, 3rd and 4th.

Click here for the second round of products.

・frame porch <deerskin sumi-dyed/L> leather shoulder pouch x 1 (patchwork)
・Mini porch <deerskin ink dyeing> x 2 (all patchwork)
・ Coin purse <deerskin ink dyeing> x 4 (all patchwork)

Amazingly detailed patchwork! I think it's the most detailed ever. “I did my best with the patchwork this time!” says Takamizawa. All 7 items from the second round are shown together, but since the back side is also a great patchwork, I will continue to post single photos of the back side. For detailed photos, please refer to each product page.

・frame porch <deerskin sumi dyeing/L> leather shoulder pouch
Due to its thickness and strength, it comes with an inner cloth. This is the first clasp that PINT has handled, and it is not plated, so it seems that you will be able to enjoy the change over time in the same way as leather. The reinforced stitching on the back, which I see for the first time, is also very good.

・Mini porch <deerskin ink dyeing> x 2 (all patchwork)
New model for the first time. It has a detachable leather strap.

・ Coin purse <deerskin ink dyeing> x 4 (all patchwork)
This is the third production, but it is a popular item that is sold out immediately every time. This base is the last 4 points, so it will be as long as it is available. It is still undecided in the future, but it is said that the base will be changed.

Hoshi after making the second round.
We made the smallest mini pouch and coin purse possible. As you can see from the patchwork that is too fine, it is in a worn-out state and cannot be made any more. It may look like there is a large area, but it is thin and cannot be made due to scratches on the back of the leather. The rest of this is kept in the shop, so if you are a maniac who wants to see it, please feel free to contact me.
