Our story

We are new. Here is how we work.

NorthCrafts is a new store, so we will not give you a long history. We would rather show you how a piece gets made.

Marking dark leather against a steel ruler

Step 1

Marked out

Your order tells us the color, the fit and any name you entered. The leather is measured and marked first.

Step 2

Shaped

A key cover is worked to the shape of one key type. That is why you choose your Key Type before you order.

Step 6

Ready to ship

Orders ship within 3–4 business days. Personalized pieces can take a little longer. You get a tracking number by email.

Not every piece goes through every step. A wallet is not shaped like a key cover. See what we make or ask about something custom.
