House of Tobias

Greetings one and all, It was wonderful having the chance to meet many of you last month. I had a great time and I appreciate the warm welcome. As many of you know I had a few items for sale last month, Vambraces and earrings. This month my current inventory includes
3- 1.5"W by 5' L ring belts
     1 Black, 1 Dark Brown, 1 Purple
2- Large Vambraces
     Color TBD
2-Small Vambraces
     Color TBD
1-Large Armour Cuff (great for holding your puffy shirt sleeves out of your way, without the whole bracer feel)
1-Small Armour Cuff (same as above only dainty. These cuffs also can double as upper arm guards sometimes for smaller individuals)
Several Pairs of earrings

More items to come as time allows...
Notes:
I love to customize items, so if there is something you wish that you don't see, or that is particular to your persona, drop me a line. I plan to be at the July event so i should be available to make alterations, as well as repair leather items you may already own.
Custom Orders require 50% down for work to start.

Thank you very much for your patronage

PS. Be sure to check out Pracika Nightwing's new Signature Series Armour, she owns the second suit of signature series Armour I have made and is getting national recognition already. Signaure series armours are the most detailed armours that I craft, each is uniquely crafted based on the individual with a large one of a kind artwork on the back.

Also, I will be working on stock all day Saturday. I would like to start working on a basic breastplate to be pictured in the online catalog online.
My standard price for a basic Breastplate front and back is $200.00, this includes sizeing, finished edges, buckles or eyelets, dyeing, and a spray shine protectant.
If someone is looking to aquire a new breastplate this weekend I will throw in vambraces in a matching color at no additional charge (a $25.00 value) plus your photo will be in the new house of tobias catalog. This offer is only good for the first basic breastplate order of the weekend of 7/26/08.
Thank you very much and see you at the event

I need to pay more attention to these boards while i am working. Silly mundane job. I will be at the event this weekend, and I will craft some scroll cases while i am there. I can make them to hang on a belt or place a longer strap on it to hang over the shoulders.

Basic price:$20.00
Tooling a design : add $15
Stamping a design i currently have a stamp for: add $10

I desire a custom knife sheath, with a leather thong to allow it to be "peace bonded."  Black leather is preferred, although I can live with dark brown.

BTW, for those of you who have not checked him out, I am happy with the workmanlike black belt and the functional and atractive scroll holder he made for me last Baronial Feast weekend.

Greetings and Salutations from Mr. Tobias,
I appologize for my absence the last few months, i was required  somewhat suddenly to relocate ( not a legal problem to assure you). I am glad to say though that I find myself back in the area the week preceeding the october event and should definately be able to attend. I hope to set up a working Leather shop/ Armoury while there, so feel free to drop in and watch or place an order. The website is takeing longer than expected just due to the intricacies of working out the automatic shipping costs as related to weight and shopping cart.
Thank you for your patronage.

Well now I know to bring more money

I heard from Pracika thgat you do very good work. About how much does a custom set of armor go for? I could use some.

A standard Peascod Breastplate (front and back) of 11-13 oz armour grade leather, no frills but complete with finished edges, sized to fit, strapping and or grommeting (your choice), and dyed a single color, starts at $200.00. Different styles of armor and detail work increases the price. Pracika's armour is actually one of 2 current Signature Series Armours. These start at $400.00 and go up, but include highly detailed tooling that makes each one an individual piece of art that stands out across any battlefield. Vambraces start at $25 a pair, and pauldrons start at $75.00 ( multiple lames and floating hinges).Differing styles of armour will have greater starting prices. (Lorica Segmentata for example)
Please feel free to stop by and discuss any particular needs you may have.
Thank you for your patronage.

All orders require 1/2 down at time of order the second half due at notification of completion. Shipping costs will be added to items that must be shipped. Shipping is via USPS Ground, unless small enough to make priority shipping cost efficient. As all items , unless in stock, are hand made a) Items color and form may vary slightly from samples, b) allow 2-3weeks for Delivery.
