WHO ARE WE?

My passion for living history spans over two decades, with a dedicated focus on the mid-19th century. Growing up on a Midwest farm, trips to Gettysburg and the Shenandoah Valley sparked a lifelong commitment to preserving history.

What began as a personal effort to research and recreate authentic 19th-century leatherwork grew into a business as fellow reenactors began asking for custom pieces. Today, I continue to expand my catalog by examining original artifacts firsthand, working closely with private collectors, museum curators, and historic institutions. Researching the past is an ongoing process, but staying true to original details keeps the craft honest.

We are proud to supply living historians, historic sites, and institutions, including:

• The National Park Service
• Virginia Military Institute
• South Mountain Maryland State Park
• Pamplin Historical Park & The National Museum of the Civil War Soldier
• U.S. Army Heritage and Education Center
• Connecticut State House Museum
• South Carolina Relic Room and Military Museum
