Leather Rug

Luxury feel under your feetThe Elvis &and Kresse leather rugs are handwoven from hundreds of individually cut interlocking pieces of the finest quality leather; leather that we reclaim from a cross section of the very best British leathercraft manufacturers. Our leather partners cherish their hides, the waste they produce is in small seemingly unusable pieces, which is why we have had to develop this modular approach. We only work with the off-cuts produced by our leather partners, so every piece we create is unique.Due to this modular concept our rugs are zero waste and designed for deconstruction, we want them to have a long and varied life. We have created three shapes that can interlock with infinite potential. The three shapes can help the rugs to be remade, and reinvented through time. We hope that our rugs are just the beginning. We can’t wait to see what we might make, or what you will.We also supply custom-sized luxury underlay with each rug, which when placed underneath the leather rug make them feel wonderful underfoot.We offer 3 standard sizes: Small, Medium and Large* but we can custom make any size and shape rug you want. The cost is £350 per M². Contact us with your request and we will arrange the rest. If you would like to customise your own rug, then please use our customisation option found by clicking "customise" above.* The rugs are hand woven so the sizes may vary very slightly. Each rug is made to order, therefore products will be dispatched up to 3 working days from order. If there is a delay we will contact you to discuss. Available in dark black, shiraz or caramel rescued leather. Samples available upon request.

Leather Belt

Look after me and I will look after youOur Fire &and Hide Belt takes its strength from a solid decommissioned fire-hose foundation and its sophistication from the delicately handwoven and edge stitched rescued leather exterior. It is a great unisex belt, made with a classic West End buckle, and is 4cm wide. The unique design allows the belt to be worn during more sophisticated formal events and casual enough to embellish everyday wear.The leather we rescue from Burberry comes to us in very limited quantities, which means we can only ever craft a few pieces of any colour. The belt is available in the above colour combinations, but always with either yellow or red fire-hose on the inside. Different colour combinations will have either a silver or antique brass buckle and matching eyelets. We recommend putting these on with care, to protect the leather weave and ensure the longevity of your belt.All our belts are measured from the fold that holds the buckle to the third hole. Sizes are: XS - 31” S - 33” M - 35” L - 37” XL - 39” XXL - 41”The best way to ensure you receive the correct size is to measure an existing belt from the fold to the hole that you most use, then pick the corresponding size from the table above.

Leather Cube

Open Doors - Rest Your FeetThe Elvis &and Kresse rescued Leather Cubes are constructed from interlocking pieces of the finest quality leather; leather that we reclaim from a cross section of the very best British leathercraft manufacturers. Our leather partners cherish their hides, the waste they produce is in small seemingly unusable pieces, which is why we have had to develop this modular approach. We only work with the off-cuts produced by our leather partners so every piece we create is unique.Ethically handmade in England, these cubes make ideal doorstops, pouffes, furniture, wedding gifts or simply exquisite objects. They are nice and heavy, stuffed completely with reclaimed leather of the same quality, making them 100% reclaimed and zero waste. They can also be personalised and if you would like a larger size, contact us with your request and we will arrange the rest.Due to the modular concept our cubes are designed for deconstruction, we want them to have a long and varied life. We have created three shapes that can interlock with infinite potential. The three shapes can help the cubes to be remade, and reinvented through time. We hope that our cubes are just the beginning. We can’t wait to see what we might make, or what you will.Available in Black, Caramel or Shiraz leather, in Small, Medium or Large.If you choose the personalisation option, this is achieved by laser etching directly into the leather.

Big Yellow Belt

Leave on your favourite trousersOur Big Yellow Belt - handcrafted from rarer decommissioned yellow fire-hose with a solid West End buckle in a silver gun metal finish, this 4cm belt really stands out in a crowd. No two yellows are the same, as fire-hoses age their colour tends to darken which means that some of our belts can be a brighter English Mustard colour and others can be much closer to a tan. If you have any questions or preferences, do let us know. At the moment we only have our darkest yellows available. Only 5% of fire-hose in the UK is ever yellow and what we receive to reclaim is even less than this. Every belt will be wholly individual, proudly carrying with it the heroic firefighting history of the hose itself. All our belts are measured from the fold that holds the buckle to the third hole. Sizes are: XS - 31” S - 33” M - 35” L - 37” XL - 39” XXL - 41”The best way to ensure you receive the correct size is to measure an existing belt from the fold to the hole that you most use, then pick the corresponding size from the table above.

Holiday Cottage - The Field House

Come and stay at the farm!For our first two years at the farm The Field House was home for Elvis, Kresse and Monty. . it was the perfect place to escape while the workshop was under construction and as the whole farm was transformed. Now we would love to share it with you!The atmosphere is relaxed and quiet and not available on airbnb. A simple, one double bed cottage with a galley kitchen (stocked with basics like olive oil, salt, pepper, tea and coffee, tableware, pots, pans etc.) and perfect for a getaway. It is at the heart of our organic and regenerative farm, overlooks a wetland and is entirely private. There is Wifi but there is no TV and mobile reception is limited. . check-in and tune-out!If you have any questions, or any requests just get in touch and we will do our best.The cottage is £95.00 per night, with a 2 night minimum booking. No hotel pricing as this is not a hotel - it is just a lovely place to be. . and if you answer anything other than 3 to the following multiple choice question, maybe not for you:It is dusk, an owl hoots outside and you step out to hear it better. While enjoying the stars a rare frog hops in the door and when you turn to head in you spot it, looking quizzically at you from the kitchen. Do you:Dash for your mobile to call your hosts at the farm to come and solve this problem for you.Put a pot on it upside down and pretend it isn't there.Be grateful that we still have frogs, put on some rubber gloves (under the sink in the kitchen - gloves are the best way to protect the frog), wet the gloves, then gently pick up the frog, supporting it from underneath. Take it back outside, and place it close to the wetland. Come back in, wash your hands with the gloves on and remove gloves. Get online and try and identify the frog or toad.If your stay coordinates with our workshop opening hours, Monday to Friday - 08:30-17:00 then you are welcome to pop in for a look around. If you would like a more formal tour then we can arrange that separately - or you can try to coordinate your stay with one of our workshops or experiences.For full Booking Terms and Conditions head here.

Leather Million Pound Bag

It's not about having a Million it's about giving a Million!To be honest, we were a little dismayed by the release of a million dollar bag. There is a lot going on in the world, and if we are going to have a price that is clearly designed to generate headlines then why not generate headlines for the right reasons?This is our response. We are upping the ante. We are releasing, for a limited time, a one-of-a-kind Million Pound bag. But this bag is completely different. It isn't about having a million to spend on a bag, it is about choosing to donate a million pounds. It is about celebrating the work of our long-standing charity partners, The Firefighters Charity and Barefoot College International. Money can't buy this bag, but generosity can.What else makes this bag unique? It is made entirely from rescued materials and it is one-of-a-kind not because we have decided to make only one, but because it is impossible to make two. When you rescue materials you have no control over what comes in, and the gold stripe across the top of this bag was in a gold leather that is so rare, we could only put it on one piece. We will not be profiting from this bag. 50% of the proceeds will go to The Firefighters Charity and 50% will go to Barefoot College International. This bag will support firefighters, and help train women to be solar engineers. It is 2023… luxury needs to be about more than bling.Our Weekend Bag is a great size for a trip away and has plenty of pockets to keep your essentials organised. Comfortable, practical and full of history even before you add your own experiences.The Fire &and Hide Weekend Bag is designed around our iconic full fire-hose variation, which is a part of the Victoria and Albert Museum's permanent collection.The Fire &and Hide CollectionIn 2005 we fell in love with London's decommissioned fire-hose.
