Custom hand stitched bar wraps on Bianchi handle bars from 2020 to 2021

2021 - Black leather hand stitched bar wrap for a Bianchi restoration. 

2020 - bar wrap in Celeste leather hand stitched with black braided thread for a Bianchi restoration.

It has taken too long for me to figure out the best way to make the right shaped pieces of leather for these wraps in order to minimise the amount of stretching and shrinking needed to fit the bar. The result is a much smoother finish with fewer wrinkles.
