Leather Cover for Bible

A leather book cover to replace the old one of a bible. Decorated in the style of many Renaissance originals and monogramed for the owners’ name. Metal corners made by myself.

Lion Sigil Scabbard

Scabbard for a client’s Albion Yeoman. Poplar core wrapped in oxblood dyed leather, with Tod Cutler cast bronze fittings. The scabbard is tooled with medieval-styled designs as well as a lion’s head to match the client’s family sigil ring.

Maximilian Scabbard

A scabbard for an Albion Maximilian. I chose to use a floral pattern that was not only popular during the period. Albion made the sword with a purple grip, and I liked the analogous color combination with the “wine” red shade.
