About

Hi! I’m a leather artist from Saint Petersburg, Russia.
I love designing and handcrafting bags that are anything but boring. Every piece is my own creation – from the first sketch to the last stitch.
Here on Boosty, I want to share my work, my process, and the joy of turning an idea into something real you can hold in your hands.

Too Sick to Shop. Too Curious Not to Test.
Scraps instead of “perfect” leather.
The Griffin is already arguing with me — and I like it.

From Blender to Paper
A paper mockup after Blender.
Awkward, imperfect — and exactly what I needed to check the form.
