Carved Leather Chair

← Back to the Portfolio

This carved leather chair is a beautiful example of the good that comes from joining forces with a talented team of creators.   Matthew Nafranowicz of The Straight Thread designed the chair and the walnut frame was built by Zach McDole.  Alicia Jepsen of Jepsen LeatherGoods, designed and crafted the leather pieces, and KG Leather took care of the carved designs.  The illustrations include images of all the tools used to create this chair.  The chair also features the carved Straight Thread logo on the seat.   This chair is currently on display at The Straight Thread, Madison, WI.
