Crowns & Cards : Pirate Radio Fundraising Edition for Ukraine
Pirate Radio is term for a radio station that broadcasts without a licence. It is also the name of a pretty rad movie with an epic soundtrack. Pirate Goods is a leather working company in the Ukraine, unable to work right now because of the ongoing war. They, along with Corter Leather, designed this pattern back in 2022. The patterns were being sold and helped get money directly into the hands of Pirate Goods so they are able to provide for their families.
Me being me, I wanted to go one step further and donate more - hence making my own version of this card holder in the colors of the Ukrainian flag. I also put to use a new technique I learned last year - marbling leather! I plan on donating to President Zelenskyy’s initiative United24 OR to World Central Kitchen who was providing meals on the ground. The net sale, meaning the full cost of the item, will be donated.
Per usual, my items are made with scrap leather in some unique textures. They feature two collar buttons for the closure and one slip pocket in the back. They comfortably hold about 5 cards and cash. And a business card will fit in the back pocket.
These measure 4” D x 2.75” H
Please note all items in the Lyric & Aster store are handmade. They are crafted of pre-loved, dead stock or salvage. Meaning they have lived a life before and may have small blemishes or scuffs, spots, mild unevenness rust or a touch of verdigris. These are not considered flaws due to a) the nature of each item and b) I myself am human, not a machine – all items are upcycled – punched, stitched, sewn by hand.
