Hunter's Edition: "Just for Fun" Demon Trap Black and Red Ribbed Purse/Pouch and Black Belt/Strap Set

Sale Price: $110.00 Original Price: $115.00

2 piece set. This Black and Red one of a kind rendition of my classic ribbed leather pouch brings you one of Fabriquewerx most iconic designs: our just for fun Demon Trap (see story below). The hand carved and tooled, dyed and painted trap design, done as an attached independent circular badge, is glued, stitched and then accented with small nickle tone rivets on the star points. This decorative centerpiece is further enhanced by the dark brown french curved pebble texture stamped field that sits below and is centered on the naturally fluted diagonal bottom edge of the stitched on flap—effective contrast to the allover line carved ribs carved ribs that are the dominant decorative theme of this simple black pocket.

The overcast and wrapped primitive sewing technique attaches not only the flap to the main body of the pouch, but also the sides—a pair of stiff rounded bottom gussets that measure about 1-1/4” W X 5-1/8” L and when sewn around a rectangular main body produce a single cavity pocket that measures 7” W X 7” L X 1-1/4” D big enough to carry most cell phones, wallets, keys, and small items for a day of adventuring.

The pouch which is made of stiffer 7-8 oz veg-tan leather has sturdy back loop for belts up to 3-1/2” wide and can double as a purse by adding the all black 3/4” strap/belt (included in this set), by using the snaps on the ends around the black metal d-rings which were added to the top of the side gussets. The flap rises above the pocket at about 2” then lays neatly over the pocket comfortably secured with a small but surprisingly effective hidden magnetic bag snap.

Inspired by the TV show and determined not to copy their iconic demon trap design, and also committed to the idea that we can accidentally bring intangible consequences about thru imprudent use of symbols, I first decided to use common and semi-recognizable ideas from Chinese and Arabic. Thus I chose the banishment symbol from Arabic, and the ill fortune or bad luck sign from Chinese. I had a little baroque stamp in my kit that when painted red look like a little humanesque shaped demon, and I used a recognizable symbol for Earth from past sci-fi. Then just for fun I chose pi for no other reason than it sounds like “pie,” my own (and Dean’s) favorite dessert. A red circle, surround the red pentacle (5 pointed star) and the space between the points house the tiny symbols just described in a traditional summoning or banishing circle, as shown in supernatural literature. After a time I learned to tool and carve around each of the tiny symbols and fill in the spaces with texture as I choose for each version of the Trap that I produce. So, the story is. . .we are banishing demons and bad fortune from earth while eating pie. And I am sticking to it
