Knollwood began in 2016, tucked into a 1920s attic in Redding, California, where I turned a makeshift studio into a space for leatherwork, design, and experimentation. What started as a side pursuit evolved over nearly a decade into a refined collection of handcrafted leather goods, shaped by years of exploration and intentional craftsmanship.
After a two-year pause to teach design and engineering, I returned to Knollwood full-time in 2024—carrying with me a renewed commitment to thoughtful design and quality materials. Each Knollwood piece blends timeless structure with a dash of boldness, built from premium Wickett & Craig bridle leather and embossed by hand in small batches. It's leatherwork rooted in precision, elevated by play, and made to carry an adventurous spirit into your every day.
