Kathleen Fiorito
Elemental Leather Co.
Making things inspired by the elements. Art, stones, gems, wood. fire , water, and nature.
All of my creations are meant to be one of a kind items. They are uniquely conceptualized and designed. If you see an texture or color or effect that inspires you, it may be possible to do the same technique or color or effect on a different item that I make. For instance perhaps you like the texture of a handbag and you love it on a journal cover in a different color. If that’s the case please reach out for a quote. For many of these items it’s not really possible for me to make again in the same way. But if you see something you like I might have some thing similar that I can do.
I use many techniques to create these effects including but not limited to hand tooling, stamping, tattooing and specific dye processes. I use a variety of leathers in my craft including veg tanned leather’s, chrome tanned leather and exotic leather. Exotic leather varies wildly depending on quality grade and size. I may have to talk to the tanneries for available supplies before giving you a quote on a custom item. If you have any questions please reach out. I currently only ship to the US by USPS or UPS signature required.

Oct 19, 2015I can't possibly express how dedicated Kathleen was to provide the best custom cat socks possible. She was passionately driven and kept me in the loop every step of the way. There were changes to the design from the beginning that she suggested that ended up being much better in the end for the longevity and duration of the cat socks. I couldn't have asked for a better artist to take over this project. Rest assured that you will be given an extremely high quality and personal product with Kathleen. Thank you, my kindred spirit. If you are ever on the edge of whether or not to pursue a proposal with Kathleen, I completely vouch for her. It's never too late...to get cat socks.

Sep 20, 2016I believe I got very lucky that Kathy was available. It sounds like she had just shipped off quite a few orders when I found her. She made a medium leather holster with my husbands family crest on it. The finished product is stunning. Kathy's attention to detail is something to be noted! She was also able to complete my order within a matter of days! Though that was not my expectation I am so appreciative. Her communication was very timely (always within the hour).

Aug 23, 2017Kathleen was in constant communication and sent me pictures as she was working on the project. The book is beautiful and you can tell it is handmade with skill. The designs are actually carved in the leather. Shipping was fast and she completed the project in the projected time frame. Very happy customer!
