Large Handmade Leather Portfolio – Full Grain Wickett & Craig | Letter Size | Happy Hollow Farm Tennessee

Large Handmade Leather Portfolio – Full Grain Vegetable Tanned Leather, Handcrafted in Tennessee

Handmade one at a time at Happy Hollow Farm in the foothills of the Tennessee Smoky Mountains, this large leather portfolio is built for professionals who carry more and demand better.

We source full hides directly from Wickett & Craig, one of the oldest and most respected tanneries in the United States, located in Pennsylvania — using only #1 quality hides tanned through a traditional vegetable process with no harsh chemicals. We cut, shape, and hand-build every portfolio from scratch at our workshop in East Tennessee. The leather develops a rich, character-filled patina with use, and every portfolio carries the subtle grain variations of a natural hide.
