Leathercraft is over 7000 years old, making it one of humanity’s oldest practices. What once served as a tool for survival has evolved into a craft that is rooted in patience, attention and the art of making something with our own hands.
In an age of fast fashion and disposability, shaping leather by hand reminds us of the value of durability, of creating fewer but more meaningful things and of honouring natural materials.
In this experience, step into the lineage of leather - understand the material, work through each stage by hand and leave with a leather cardholder you’ve shaped, stitched and made your own.

What's A 'Trove Experience'
As our cities swell, we tend to do fewer and repetitive things for recreation. With Trove, you get to break the monotony and explore fresh activities in your city, meet like-minded souls, and develop a deeper appreciation for the finer things.
Most of us likely resonate with terms like 'workshops' or 'events.’ What makes these an 'experience' is the energies we put into scouring the right artists, creators and storytellers, to ensure that each Trove Experience leaves you enriched with meaningful moments to collect for your very own treasure trove.
FAQs
Will all the equipment be provided?
Yes, all necessary equipment will be provided in the experience.
How far in advance should I book the spot?
It's best if you book online well in advance. Since we work in small groups and on a first come, first serve basis, last minute availability may be limited.
Will I receive certifications for attending the experience?
The experiences we offer are one-time, 2-3 hour formats that cover the introductory aspects of the topic. We don't provide courses or official certifications; the idea is to simply discover something new in an engaging manner, and in the company of like-minded people.
Will I get a discount for this experience?
We don’t typically do discounts since our experiences are designed for intimate groups with small margins. However, we do promise to pack enough value in terms of what you will experience.
