I wanted to make something beautiful and Unusual…
when I founded Capricorn Hides in 2012 it was about starting a small atelier that could create a unique and luxurious leather that designers I admired would use. success for me has always been more than just making money, it’s about being part of a creative process and getting people excited about an idea.
our etched, engraved and painted leathers are made-to-order in our philadelphia studio on leathers from our hudson valley partner tannery, Pergamena as well as on the highest quality european hides.
we supply Fully custom design services and in addition to our etched and engraved leathers, offer printed, quilted, embossed and a full spectrum of plain cow, goat and lamb hides.
