A one-of-a-kind leather belt bag, the Fibula Animals Leather Belt Bag is a beautiful piece of functional art that you can take with you wherever you go! The body of the bag is made of of a brown-dyed nubuck deerskin, locally sourced here in Lanark County. The lid of the bag is made from sturdy and reliable vegetable-tanned cow leather, treated and preserved with neatsfoot oil to keep it moisturized. It cinches closed using a drawstring decorated with wooden beads, and the lid clasps shut with decorated concho. The design comes from a fibula brooch found in Gotland, Sweden, that features three animal figures engraved in the Borre style.
I love this bag and loved making it, and I hope that you will love it too!
