Our Story
Our journey began in 2018 when we started learning the craft of leatherworking.
As we gained experience, we realized that many leather products were beautiful, yet few carried real meaning for the people who owned them.
That inspired us to establish Thornyx in 2020.
Rather than creating products from templates, we chose to create pieces inspired by each customer's own story.
We believe a handcrafted piece should become a lasting reminder of the people, memories, and moments that truly matter.

Our Mission
Our mission is to preserve personal stories through handcrafted leather art while introducing the craftsmanship of Vietnamese artisans to people around the world.
Our Vision
We hope to help more people discover the beauty of meaningful craftsmanship while bringing Vietnamese leather artistry to an international audience.
Inspired by Vietnam
Every piece begins in Vietnam, where traditional craftsmanship, patience, and everyday life continue to inspire the way we create.
-
100% Handcrafted
Every piece is carved, painted, and finished entirely by hand. We believe true craftsmanship comes from patience, precision, and the human touch.
-
Italian Leather
We use premium Italian vegetable tanned leather selected for its durability, natural aging, and timeless character.
-
Made From Your Story
Every design begins with your own memories, passions, or ideas. No catalog. No templates. Just your story.
