Emporium Custom Leathers, LLC is a fixture at the NY Renaissance Faire in Tuxedo, NY. The company originally started out as the NERO Emporium over 15 years ago, specializing in renaissance and LARP costuming. After aprenticing with my teacher for over 6 years, she sold the company to me and I changed the name to Emporium Custom Leathers, LLC.
Everything is made by hand in my workshop or on site at the NYRen Faire or at conventions. I only use the best leather and materials and am happy to take custom orders. I am always looking for a challenge and welcome any feedback or suggestions that you may have.
I do my best to make sure that custom is not synonymous with expensive. feel free to contact me if you see something on my page that you would like in a different color or variation or if you have something completely new.

For Leather BackpackJess was awesome - we ended up with a product way beyond my expectations. I got to stop by a couple times at her shop to check out my piece as it was being created and make sure it completely fit. She's been super flexible in adjustments I needed, and I will absolutely work with her again. Thanks!

For Case for my new Nexus 7 Tablet - Leather or something else?Jessica did a great job creating a near bombproof tablet case for me. The stitching is very well done and the letter carving is just too awesome. She even hand delivered it when it was finished! :) I'd definitely recommend her for any kind of specialty leather work.
