The Large Handle Leather Modelling Tool in Spoon/Stylus style by Ivan is a Dual head modelling tool, suitable for shaping, contouring, and adding fine detail to carved vegetable tanned leather, acting much like a sculptor’s tool to create 3D effects, smooth out swivel knife cuts, and add depth.
The spoon end is used for creating deep contours, smoothing out rough bevelling marks, adding shadows, and sculpting rounded, 3D shapes. It is essential for figure carving to add depth to features.
The stylus end is ideal for tracing, transferring, and carving detailed designs onto damped (cased) vegetable-tanned leather. It features small ball-point ends that create precise, sunken lines without cutting the leather, acting like a pen to define patterns, add veins to leaves, or create intricate textures.
The Large Handle Modelling Tool measures 17 cm in length.
