Samantha Crompton × Leatherius Woodman – a leather stamping study

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

An August study.

For Samantha Crompton.

First, we went back to the baggage claim where Samantha's own luggage-tag story begins – the belt of suitcases that all look alike. Seven identical bags ride the belt on this stamp, and the middle one wears a bow beneath the words THAT ONE IS MINE.

Looks great when stamped onto the leather. The black tag carries the phrase in gold.

Next, the pun a fashion writer's passport deserves. A runway climbs to the horizon and the flashbulbs are already firing at the far end – RUNWAY TO RUNWAY, wheels up to front row, on true black and pale warm greige.

Then the toiletry bags. Travel-size beauty is a genre straight from Samantha's byline list, so we pressed one atomizer above the words TRAVEL SIZE, small in the lower corner of a black bag stacked on a deep espresso one.

For the golden tan tray, a stamp for the hour the look comes off. Folded sunglasses over the words OFF DUTY – the dish by the door where earrings and room keys land.

Next, the piece Samantha has promised to style forever. A blazer, lapels sharp, above THE FOREVER PIECE – scaled down to live on a set of keys, in black and pale rose.

The black fob carries the blazer in gold.

Black and pale rose leather keychains stamped THE FOREVER PIECE for Samantha Crompton.

And finally, the one we liked the most. A rail of empty hangers, and across the middle hanger rests a fountain pen – THE EDIT. Everything else went back; the writing earned its place on the pale rose and pale greige journals.

It looks genuinely beautiful.

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.
