Our vegetable-tanned leather does great indoors or outdoors. It is the same kind of old-fashioned heritage leather used in equestrian gear (horse tack), so it is meant to be rough-housed and cleans easily!

A tactile and luxe leather handle wrap designed for kitchen appliances and more. Intuitive to install, our leather wrap kit is designed to flexibly coil around bars of any size.
Our wrap matches our collection of Leather Drawer Pulls and Cabinet Handles for warm and cohesive look throughout your kitchen, at all the touch points.
Like our other bar wraps, the Oswego Leather Wrap comes as a kit. You install it yourself on your handles and bars. The simple coil tape design is flexible for any kind of bar or rail dimensions: it can fit around curves, corners, ovalized shapes, and more.
Using the unique qualities of veg-tan leather, no sticky tape backing is required. This natural leather stays fast in place once installed, yet is able to be transferred from handle to handle over the years.

Everything came out so beautiful. I love the video it gave me the confidence to do this on my own . The only thing negative that I could think of was the leather when applied wet in the steel, rusted, got moldy and bled through the surface. But it made a cool pattern.
Excellent product, I'll be coming back for future leather wraps. The included detailed instructions were great, this was my first leather working project and I'm very satisfied with the results. I used this kit to add a leather grip to my dull edge display replica of the Sword of Kahless Bat'leth. Turned out great.
The instructions were great! There was a lack of imagination on my part which caused a hiccup getting started. I could not figure out how to get the wrap started based off the very clear instructions and diagrams provided. The wrap starts on the far/back side of the handle with the rough leather facing inwards, and the electrical tape around it on the smooth side. I had to pull up the instructional video to realize what I was doing wrong. After that, it was super easy. Didn't have to re-wrap. The leather stretched just enough, the electrical tape kept things in place, and I only poked myself once with the little metal clasps when applying the finishing wraps. Very pleased with this. My metal door handle faces the setting sun, and it’s been brutal touching it in 105F.
The black Oswego leather wrap has been a fantastic addition to my GRÄNSFORS BRUK splitting maul, thank you so much you two!! 😃

Excellent quality for the price
Installation easier than expected. Instructions are well written and clear. Looks great on my fridge!
Wonderful product & great customer service! If you don’t have this product you most definitely should buy it! Adds such a beautiful warm touch to your home!
I used these to wrap hand rails and loved the quality and clear instruction videos and tips. I’m sure to order from them again.
Walnut provided a great product with excellent communication and service along the way. Very much appreciated their thoughtful packaging as well!
Was easy to install on our front door handle. As careful as I could be, I still nicked my finger on the leather staple. It looks great.
