Elle Ashworth

Elle was traditionally trained in the medium of metals & jewelry. A few years ago, she transitioned into working with leather and every piece she designs and creates is a labor of love. Elle's process involves meticulous hand-cutting and hand-stitching, ensuring that each item is a testament to the time-honored art of leatherworking. What sets her work apart is the infusion of one-of-a-kind surface designs achieved through mono printing. This innovative technique makes them truly unprecedented and unable to be replicated – a process that requires creativity and precision ... and she finds immense joy in bringing her designs to life. One distinctive element of Elle's work is the use of orange linen thread for stitching. A choice that is a reflection of the happiness and positivity she aims to convey through her creations and also serves as a visual signature. In a world where mass production is prevalent, Elle takes pride in being part of a small group of artisans who prioritize craftsmanship and individuality. The hands-on nature of her work allows her to infuse a sense of authenticity and passion into every item.
