About

By now, I’ve spent more than half my life working with leather, and today I’m proud to share the pieces I create and the journey behind them.​My fascination with materials began in kindergarten, experimenting with fabrics and sewing techniques long before I knew it would become my career.

 

At 14, I had the opportunity to intern at 118 Second Läder, a vintage leather shop specializing in restoration and customization. I was immediately drawn to the duality of leather: its timeless elegance paired with its history as a symbol of rebellion.​What began as a short school project quickly became a defining chapter of my life.

Throughout the rest of high school, I spent every free moment at the shop. After graduating, I was offered a full-time position, and for the next five years I restored and customized leather jackets spanning the entire 20th century.​

 

From repairing WWI bomber jackets to creating custom pieces for Eurovision, I learned every facet of leatherwork: understanding which parts of a hide best serve different sections of a garment and crafting pieces meant to last, both in quality and in style.

During this period, I also studied pattern making at Tillskärarakademin as well as private schooling in traditional sewing and pattern construction from a traditional Malung pattern maker, deepening my technical foundation.

​

​I recently discovered that I'm one of a handful of people that still know this craft. So in order to pass it forward I've started a YouTube channel in order to share my leather passion the way I believe it should be done, with perfection.
