Things I Like - Leather Prince


This issue of "Things I Like" is finally here! And this time we are featuring another local indie talent - Leather Prince. Now when I mention leather what comes to mind? Plain boring pieces in brown and black? NO! Leather Prince has proved otherwise - and leather has just taken a whole new look! Just look at the pieces above!

Leather Prince is a husband and wife team, Beon Kan and Candy who makes adooorable and cute leather items that you see here - keychains, keyholders, pouches, cases etc. All REAL leather, and all painstakingly HANDcut, and HANDstitched. They are also MAAD regulars, and so I have had the privilege of seeing and touching these lovely items myself, and boy am I impressed with their excellent handiwork! All the cutting and stitches are perfect!

Wallet in need of change? Buying a gift for your girl or guy? Personally I would pick that cool horse pouch and nifty little ninja keyholder for a guy and the swanky crab pouch and cute little pig keyholder for a girl. But hey don't rely on my picks, go look for something yourself at their online shop - http://leatherprince.etsy.com/. Local Singapore buyers can see them and their lovely goods at the monthly 1st-weekend MAAD bazaar at red dot design museum.
