Handcrafted oak-bark tanned leather goods designed to last for generations
MEMBER OF & FEATURED BY:
Award-winning artisan leatherwork, expertly made in Devon
"Craftsmanship is not just about making; it's about honouring tradition, valuing quality, and creating with intention."
At Warriner Leather, I create timeless belts, bags, dog collars, leads, and saddlery using oak-bark tanned hides from Britain’s last remaining oak bark tannery. Every piece is made with traditional saddlery techniques and designed to last a lifetime — growing richer with age. My work is for people who value authenticity, sustainability, and craftsmanship over mass-produced goods, choosing pieces built to be worn, loved, and passed on.
A proper everyday belt, made for years of hard use.
The Belstone is my classic everyday leather belt, cut by hand from 4–5mm British oak bark tanned bridle leather from J&FJ Baker in Devon. Made for people who work outdoors, on the land or in the workshop, each belt is individually made to measure and finished by hand in my Dartmoor workshop.
Fitted with a traditional solid brass West End buckle, the Belstone is available in three widths, with your choice of a single or double hand-stitched leather keeper.

Getting your size right
Please carefully follow my BELT MEASUREMENT GUIDE before placing your order to ensure you take the correct measurement for your belt.
Every belt is made individually to the measurement you provide, so it's very important that your measurement is correct. Belt measurements differ from standard clothing sizes, and you'll be asked to provide yours when ordering. If you're unsure, please get in touch before ordering and I'll happily help.
A classic large leather trug designed for big adventures and daily life alike — perfect for gardeners gathering cut flowers, foragers roaming the woods, farmers’ market shoppers filling up with seasonal produce, or makers carrying tools and craft supplies.
Introducing the Large Forager’s Trug, my spacious and sturdy take on the traditional gardener’s trug — thoughtfully handcrafted to hold generous harvests, bunches of herbs, armfuls of vegetables or fresh sourdough, thermos and picnic blanket for an afternoon on the moors.
With its robust build and timeless style, this handmade leather garden basket is as practical in the flower garden as it is at the farmers’ market or allotment — and equally suited for carrying woodworking tools, chisels, or craft essentials from workshop to shed.
Not too light and not too heavy, the perfect balance to swing on your arm.
A classic British leather belt with traditional decorative hand stitching.
The Buckland is a classic leather belt with a more refined finish, featuring decorative hand stitching inspired by traditional harness work and two hand-stitched leather keepers. Cut by hand from British oak bark-tanned bridle leather from J&FJ Baker in Devon, each belt is made to measure and finished by hand in my Dartmoor workshop. The solid brass roller buckle is available in a single-prong design in 1.25" or 1.5", or a double-prong design in 1.5".

A design for life
Founded in 2018, Warriner Leather combines traditional craftsmanship with a passion for durable, timeless leather goods. With over 12 years of experience as a leatherworker, saddler, and harness maker, I handcraft each belt, bag, dog collar, and saddlery piece using locally sourced oak-bark tanned leather, waxed linen threads, and solid brass hardware.
Crafted with Care, Tradition & Sustainability
Each item tells a story — from local farms raising the cattle to UK tanneries producing sustainable hides. My goal is to create heirloom-quality leather goods that blend function, tradition, and the enduring artistry of artisan UK leatherwork, designed to last a lifetime

A handmade British leather tool belt for carpenters, foresters, riggers and outdoor folk.
The Rigger is a heavy-duty leather tool belt designed to be worn over clothing rather than through trouser loops. Handmade to measure from British oak bark tanned leather in my Dartmoor workshop, its 2" (50mm) width helps distribute the weight of tools and pouches across the waist and hips. A solid brass double-prong West End roller buckle provides a secure fastening, whilst nine adjustment holes allow the belt to be worn over lighter summer clothing or thick winter layers.
Choose the belt on its own, or add an additional leather sleeve, a set of four leather loops with brass Dee rings, or both. Designed to work alongside your existing tool pouches and holders, giving you more ways to arrange your working equipment.
