Blind Tooling Leather with Handmade Tools (1x11)

Data emisji: Kwi 04, 2021

Blind tooling leather is an aspect of bookbinding that I very much want to further incorporate into my work, so in this video I experiment with some of my handmade tools. Watch as I use the brass gouge I made in a previous video, an ink pad, and paper to develop and refine a leaf pattern. Then, by heating the tools, I emboss the design I created onto the leather corners of a book.
