UNEARTHED by Karen Koenig

I have always loved leather, and have always loved fashion. I would drool over the advertisements in fashion magazines and was always drawn to the accessories. I would scan the features hoping to find that one amazing piece that was stunning and affordable, and never could. So, with experience in jewelry design as well as traditional leatherwork under my belt I decided to forgo the mortgage payment price tags of designer leather goods and just make my own. And now I make them for you, too!

UNEARTHED specializes in offering an extensive array of exceptionally beautiful and hard to find exotic leathers and I am constantly scouring the world for more! I often custom craft, color, and dye leathers to order, and work with a wide array of materials from snake skins and shagreen, to ostrich and lizard, and virtually everything in-between. I try to create contemporary, edgy, streamlined cuffs that will become modern heirlooms.

This is and has been my full time job for a few years now and there is nothing I would rather be doing. I love this shop, I have a deep and abiding love of leather, and have some of the most astoundingly kind (and not to mention stylish!) customers ever. I am so grateful to everyone who has supported the shop over the years and allowed me to do what I adore. I can never thank you enough.
The shop has grown from an experimental adventure grounded in hope and determination into something more amazing than I could have asked for, both in a business sense and on a personal level. I never anticipated the lovely responses from customers, bloggers, celebrities and media outlets, but more so never anticipated how much I would find my own identity in this shop and this work. I live and breath UNEARTHED, and it has come to define a huge part of my life as well as my children's lives, and hopefully one day they will take the reigns and carry what I have begun into a new generation!
