Large embossed full-grain leather patch (186 × 213 mm / 7.3 × 8.4 in): a bouquet of three red roses surrounded by scrollwork, with 12 small rose-shaped rivets around the edge. Antique brown or white trim (openwork woven background). Sew-on, pre-punching option. Made in our workshop in France.
A bouquet of roses in relief
A large 18.6 × 21.3 cm patch, embossed with a big red rose between two smaller ones, surrounded by scrollwork, in a frame with cut corners. Around the edge, 12 small rose-shaped rivets shine in the holes of the frame: we set them in our workshop, so you receive the complete patch, ready to sew. To sew on the back of a vest or a jacket, or on a saddlebag.
Two colours
Antique brown: shaded brown background, black scrollwork and frame. White trim: openwork woven brown background, white scrollwork and trim, black frame.
Pre-punching option (+€5)
Sewing your patch on yourself, by hand, is the personal touch that makes all the difference on a vest. On a leather vest you also have to pierce the vest leather to pass the needle. With the pre-punching option, we punch the edge of the patch in advance, with a hole every 2 mm. The patch then becomes your template: glue it to the vest with leather glue so it no longer moves, pierce the vest leather through its holes, and both are perfectly aligned. All that is left is to sew with a saddle stitch, with two needles and waxed thread: it is the strongest stitch for leather, and you will easily find a tutorial by searching “leather saddle stitch” on YouTube. For machine sewing, the unpunched patch is better.
Made in our workshop
In our family workshop, since 1989, our patches are cut from full-grain leather made especially for Traveller Shop by a French tanner, then embossed. On the photo the relief barely shows: in real life the design stands out clearly, and the patch looks even better.
