Adventures By Adam × Leatherius Woodman – a leather stamping study

From the Practice Log – an ongoing series of stamping studies on real-world marks.

A July study.

Adventures By Adam is Adam Zammit's luxury advisory – a Brisbane native who spent seventeen years with Qantas before crossing the world to build his own shop, specializing in Australia, New Zealand, Africa and serious cruising. His monogram is a quiet piece of work: a thin ring around a serif A whose crossbar sweeps out as a calligraphic swash, reading as horizon, or wake. It asked for gold.

The mark, as found

Pressed

Navy blueberry for his brand's deep blue, a pale sea-blue for the water under his hero yacht, and black – where a gold mark like his belongs.

The southern sky

Then the second die, for where he's from: the Southern Cross over one long swash of horizon – the same stroke his own monogram makes – and his own words beneath it. The details are handled; the adventure is yours.

We made this out of love. Leatherius Woodman is on a mission to create and share artifacts of beauty, craft and love – this study is one of them, and we hope the feeling is mutual. Every image is a render – how we prototype before cutting a die.
