Leather Tankards

[Dreadhead]

Hey all,

I've been making tankards of late, and have a few left for sale.
Each tankard is made from 3.5mm veg tan cowhide, hand stitched with artificial sinew, and fully sealed with pure beeswax. They are perfect for water, beer, or cider. Anything stronger or hot is likely to affect the wax.


NOW ALL SOLD



















Lightweight, and tasty, mine comes everywhere with me. Here is mine filled with guiness at our highland bushcraft gathering last month

I can totally vouch for the awesomeness, the ability of them to hold alcohol better than i can and the amount of work that goes into making one by hand because I made one with his guidance when i was last visiting Hamish

Excellent work as always! I've just finished four and they took far more time than I'd like to admit. I doubt I would be able to sell mine for less than £80 if I was paid minimum wage and nothing for materials, so a must buy for anyone looking!

Thanks Tim, they are indeed a lot of work. I sell slightly taller ones with a bit more detail for around £80. Pricing is always a double edged sword, and I've found the balance here for myself

I don't even carve mine! Haven't ever sold one either. Too much of a PITA to make
