Handmade in NZ by Fiona Ritchie
NZ 100% Full Grain Black Aniline Leather
In September 2016, our leather artisan, Fiona Ritchie, designed a new, contemporary update on the mass produced, vinyl finish, Black Pilot logbook cover. First step was to find a full grain leather which retained the individual grain character within a solid black colour. She next experimented with a personalised laser engraved wings and initials patch with feature hand stitching. This distinctive leather logbook cover and today is one of Sparrowhawk leather’s most popular pilot logbook covers.
The full grain, black aniline dyed leather is produced at a NZ Tannery. It retains the hide’s natural surface and grain characteristics giving it a quality look, feel and smell. The Whisky Aniline patch has a great depth of colour, and is the perfect background for your personalised laser engraving.
Our Founder
Fiona Ritchie Leather Artisan & Pilots Wife
Sparrowhawk Leather took flight in 2014 when I made my first Pilot Logbook cover for my Airline pilot husband, Nick. Unable to find a robust, handmade leather cover like the one he’d purchased 30 years earlier, Nick asked that I make covers to fit his current and older logbook.
Since then, I have made nearly 1000 personalised leather logbook covers for pilots in New Zealand, Australia, US, UK and Hong Kong. As Sparrowhawk Leather became known, pilots requested more personalisation and custom made options, as well as Pilot Licence wallets and Men’s wallets. Today Sparrowhawk Leather makes the widest range of Pilot Logbook Covers available in the world, all from my Farm Workshop in Hunua, New Zealand.
