A classic handmade dog collar
Built for country life, muddy adventures, and years of loyal wear.
Crafted for all breed types and working dogs, this traditional leather dog collar is cut from the finest oak bark tanned British bridle leather, sourced from J & FJ Baker’s historic tannery in Colyton, Devon. Renowned for its strength and durability, this full-grain leather has been naturally oak bark tanned for over 200 years, making it one of the most robust and sustainable leathers you can buy.
Each collar is handmade and saddle-stitched by hand using waxed linen thread — the same methods trusted in classic saddlery.

A Design for Life
Founded in 2018, Warriner Leather combines traditional craftsmanship with a passion for durable, timeless leather goods. I'm Katy Warriner, a Devon-based leatherworker, qualified saddler, bridle maker and harness maker, with over 15 years of experience in traditional leatherwork and saddlery. Working from my workshop on Dartmoor, I handcraft British leather goods that bring together thoughtful design, time-honoured skills and a belief that everyday objects should be made to last a lifetime.
From handmade leather belts and bags to dog collars, leads and bespoke saddlery, each piece is made using traditional saddlery techniques, British oak bark tanned leather from J&FJ Baker in Devon, Britain's last remaining traditional oak bark tannery, waxed linen thread and solid brass hardware. Every piece tells a story, from the British farms raising the cattle to the traditional tanning methods that transform their hides into beautiful, hard-wearing leather. My work is for people who value authenticity, quality and craftsmanship over mass-produced goods, choosing pieces that grow richer with age, built to be worn, loved, cared for, repaired and passed on.
“Craftsmanship is not just about making; it's about honouring tradition, valuing quality, and creating with intention.”

“Rare to find true crafters who take a real pride in their work and come from a background of formal training to become masters of their craft. This was for an 18th birthday, a gift that will last, age, develop its own beauty and character alongside its extremely happy owner and be a lifetime treasure.”
