Hi all,
I know i have been quiet on the strap front lately, i have suffered from recurring bouts of tendinitis (tennis elbow) which has prevented me from taking on custom orders lately.
I have also been experimenting (when i can ) with making other items such as laptop cases and credit card cases, these are on display on my website now!
However over the past few weeks i have completed two new straps that are made using an old satchel;

I would hazard a guess at this being about 40 years old!

Any way these two straps are from this bag,they are thick at about 6 mm but would soften up over time.
The first is as follows;
24 X 24 mm
130 X 80 mm
raw edges,one large floating keeper
Natural waxed thread:



The second:
26 X 26 mm
134 X 85 mm
White waxed thread
Raw edging,two keepers



Both are priced at $100 to include worldwide shipping.
These are not on my site yet because i thought i would offer them here first!
I can be contacted at orb-straps@hotmail.com

Thank-you for looking
Paul
