There are so many ar-
tists – from painters to
sculptors, but sometimes
I have a feeling that tra-
ditional crafting activities
such as leatherwork or
ceramics are slowly dying
out from this world. The
only thing that was giving
me hope were stands appe-
aring at historical events
and celebrations all around
Slovakia. Until now. A few
months later I had that
pleassure to meet a man,
who is able to craft various
handful and beatiful thin-
gs made out of leather.
From forearm protectors
to bags, there is always so-
mething to choose from.
Great is also his interaction
with fans of his page. Re-
ply for your message can be
found very quickly, also nice
behaviour is normal for him.
He created various contests
at his page for his fans, even
I participated in one and
won a beautiful leather bag.
Contest was typical, I just
needed as highest amount of
likes as possible at my com-
ment, so it was only about
reliable people and friends

Bag for a woodsman
who were able to help you.
Right after the winner was
announced, he texted me
and asked about where to
send this bag and so on. Af-
ter a few days later, bag was
awaiting me and I have to
say, it looks better than on
the photos.
Small leather bag of a size
of a wallet with belt grip. It
is very pleasant to touch, on
the front is a sprouted pen-
