Lawrence Griego

Lawrence Craig Leather gets a portion of its namesake from my grandfather, Lawrence Griego.  Grandpa Griego was the original renaissance man of the family.  He was a painter, sculptor, wood carver, clock maker, harmonica/guitar player, and of course, a leatherworker.  Regardless of the task, he always created with an intense, vibrant passion.  His leatherwork was immensely detailed and beyond compare.  When I was young, he taught me many of the basics of leathercrafting.  I inherited his tools;  many of which I use on pieces today.  With the values that he instilled in me, I approach each individual piece with same level of passion and craftsmanship.
