A truly unique find for the lover of all things "dragon-esque," this Black Leather Dragon Checkbook Holder will be the envy of all those with like minds. Handcrafted by artist Wendy Ellertson, this handsome piece is formed using unique sculptural methods to form the leather into the shape of a fearsome dragon. Each piece is hand-sculpted and hand-stitched to make a truly one-of-a-kind checkbook holder. A glass eye adds to the dramatic appearance of the outside and the interior is lined with brown suede.

Wendy Ellertson was born in San Francisco, CA and grew up in the Bay Area, Chicago, and Cleveland. She holds degrees from Stanford University, Boston College, and studied at the Cleveland Art Institute. She has been an active member of the fine craft community for over forty-five years, dancing around and through many media categories always accompanied by her figures which incorporate leather, clay, wood and a deliciously eclectic array of contemporary and ancient materials, techniques and dreams.
