I've had a bunch of these bottle sitting around the shop for some time now and a while ago I finally got around to making some leather bottle holders for them and now I've finally got around to posting 'em. These are much improved over the ones I posted onto dA back in '07, even though it's the same general design. The leather's better, the dye's better, the rivets are solid brass, the straps are the made from the best leather lace I can find (Loggers Lace) etc.
I will be posting these onto etsy sometime soon. If you're like me and prefer to drink out of glass rather then plastic and you're interested in one but they're not posted on etsy, just send me a note and we can skip the middle man. I also have several more bottles waiting to be fitted, so if there's a color you'd like to see, let me know!
These bottles are Blue glass with Dk Brown leather, Brown glass with Natural leather, Green glass with Black leather and Clear glass with Medium brown leather.
I really like these. Do you have any still around? How much do they hold? Or rather, could you make one that holds 500ml or more and would you be willing to ship to Norway?
Certainly do, still have a couple of these in the picture and I also have a few bottles that don't have the leather sling made for them yet. They are all a standard 500 ml size, the shorter ones are wider and the taller ones are skinnier, but they are all about the same volume. Shipping to Norway is also possible. Send me a note and we can cover the details!
It's quite simple really, just a strip of leather wide enough to wrap around the neck and long enough to go the length, the bottom portion is cut into 8 strips and riveted to a bottom circle and the top is held together by lace!
