Craft your own medieval kidney pouch with this detailed leather pattern and step-by-step video tutorial. Inspired by the distinctive belt pouches worn throughout the 14th to 17th centuries, this project features a traditional drawstring closure and includes the elegant Vine Knotwork carving pattern shown for those who want to add decorative tooling.
Kidney pouches were a common everyday accessory, used to carry coins, keys, herbs, and other small essentials while keeping them close at hand. Their practical design and distinctive shape have made them a favorite among historical reenactors, Renaissance fair enthusiasts, LARPers, and anyone looking to add an authentic medieval-inspired accessory to their kit.
Whether you choose to carve the included artwork or customize the flap with your own design, this pattern creates a functional, eye-catching pouch that's both enjoyable to build and practical to wear. A step-by-step video tutorial is included to guide you through the entire project, making it suitable for leatherworkers of all skill levels.
