Introducing Wildhart Workshop

Welcome to Wildhart Workshop - Providing quality Leatherwork and Costume products and services here in New Zealand and Worldwide.


With over a decade of experience in costume and leatherwork, and servicing large scale productions for stage and screen as well as re-enactment and custom small scale requests - if you want something cool, I've got you covered. The workshop, based just south of Thames, New Zealand, is capable of catering to both one off requests and large production runs, and facilitating connections with a wide network of skilled professionals that we can draw from to assist in bespoke projects of any scale. 

The workshop caters to many NZ companies providing custom leather parts and products at a kiwi-made quality, and on commercial scale, featuring in film production, on stage and in live action events.
