Family Established Leather Catchall
This charming leather catchall will be personalized with the family name and year of establishment. It is fully customizable in your choice of size, color, and font to create the perfect piece for your or your loved ones' home. It is an especially wonderful gift for newlyweds on their wedding day, a couple celebrating a milestone anniversary, or those who have just purchased a new home.
TEXT
This laser-engraved design will feature the last name you provide, along with year of family establishment (in slightly smaller font underneath).
You should not pluralize the last name yourself. We will add the -s or -es, as needed. For example:
- If the family's last name is Mendez, you should only enter Mendez. We will then engrave the catchall with The Mendezes.
- If the family's last name is Smits, we will engrave the catchall with The Smitses. If you enter the name as Smits, we will assume you did not pluralize it (per our instructions) and that the actual last name ends in S and still requires pluralization.
- If the family's last name is Newton, we will engrave the catchall with The Newtons.
(If needed, you may submit a message to us in order to clarify this detail.)
Please note that laser-engraving may have a dark brown or black tone to it, depending on the color of leather selected. See our “Laser-Engraved Text Examples” for sample representations of how engraving looks on each leather color option.

LEATHER
We use premium full-grain, veg-tanned Italian leather for our catchalls. The leather thickness for all sizes is 5 ounces and it has a medium firmness. There is a somewhat rustic-looking texture with slight variegation to the color tone across the surface of the leather. Each piece of leather is unique and may exhibit a different “pattern” or markings. As noted above, color may vary slightly due to variations in screens and leather.
The process we use to shape our catchalls is called wet forming. It results in the leather having a somewhat more firm feel and becoming slightly stiff. It will hold its shape but is still a bit pliable if you attempt to manipulate it with your hands. The wet forming method enables the tray to maintain its shape without the use of rivets. As each catchall is formed by hand, there may be slight variations in the final shape.
The leather is finished with a satin resin which gives a slight sheen to the surface while offering some protection and added durability for the piece, helping to ensure its longevity. We also burnish the edges of the catchalls to give them a smooth, finished appearance.
