I design every item in this collection specifically for your modern life. You won't find fragile costume props here. Thanks to the robust vegetable-tanned leather and my meticulous hand-stitching, these leather accessories are built to organize your daily essentials: like cards, keys, and notebooks, with rugged reliability. They carry the spirit and aesthetics of the past, ensuring you stand out in the modern world, yet they feel completely at home during your next historical reenactment or fair.

If an item is not currently in stock, your order immediately secures a dedicated production slot. I cut, tool, and stitch every single piece by hand myself. The average creation time is always clearly indicated on each product page, and it never exceeds 10 working days for any standard catalog item.

If you need a specific modification, bespoke sizing, or a completely custom design, please email me directly. I am always happy and available to discuss new projects, and I will personally reply to all inquiries with a tailored quote within 48 hours.

I craft my gear exclusively using 100% authentic, full-grain vegetable-tanned cowhide. Upon delivery, your piece will feel slightly stiff. This is not a flaw, but the ultimate certificate of quality, proving the natural fibers are fully intact for maximum structural strength. Unlike chemically softened industrial leathers that degrade rapidly, authentic gear requires a brief break-in period. With regular use, it will naturally yield and mold perfectly to your movements.

Because every piece leaves the workshop already deeply treated with specific oils, it requires minimal effort to last a lifetime:

• Routine Care (~Every 2 Years): Gently rub a thin veil of solid conditioner (like high-quality saddle soap) onto the "rough" flesh side. Avoid pure liquids like Neatsfoot oil, which can oversaturate and weaken the structure.
• Restoring Shine: Apply an atomized wax-based product to the smooth grain side and buff to your desired gloss.
• Weather & Aging: Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain to prevent stiffening as it dries. Extended direct sunlight will naturally darken lighter colors. Regardless of maintenance, your item will develop a profound, beautiful patina over the years.

Free, fully tracked worldwide shipping from my workshop in Italy is included in all prices, using only trusted couriers. Travel times are usually 2-7 business days.

Important Security Notice: Because I craft high-value handmade items, any order over €200 strictly requires a signature upon delivery. I do not allow these packages to be left unattended on porches or doorsteps. In the rare event you notice major damage or signs of tampering on the package upon arrival, please accept it but sign "with reserve" (specifying the damage to the courier) and immediately send a photo to info@reliqleather.com. This step is essential to activate the shipping insurance I have included for your piece.

While applicable taxes are already covered at checkout, please note that for international shipments outside the EU (including the US), any specific customs clearance fees or import duties levied by your local border agency remain the sole responsibility of the buyer.
