My Name is Tiffany Crabtree, artisan behind the San Diego based leather company, Contrived to Charm. Each unique item is carefully handcrafted from scratch using high quality leather materials and classic tooling techniques.  Much of my inspiration stems from an appreciation of vintage nostalgia and style. There is mystery and romance in objects from the past. I strive to create everyday wearable items that are classic yet whimsical. Pieces that sport a dash of drama blended with the mystical and macabre. Melding different elements from history and fashion allows me to create things that will not only withstand the test of time, but survive changing trends. Whether you are the girl next door, a haute fashionista, heroine or villainess, I’ve got something that is sure to charm you.
