OUR STORY
Built by a Leatherworker, for Leatherworkers
British Leather Supplies was founded in Devon by Becky, maker and founder of CARV.
After years of sourcing, testing, and relying on tools and hardware in her own workshop, Becky created a place where makers could find trusted products without the guesswork.
Today, this family-run business combines real hands-on experience with carefully curated supplies, affordable pricing, and genuinely friendly customer service to support everyone from first-time crafters to established leatherworking brands.
