Gorgeous Gio! I particularly like the subdued tone on the handle of the standard 8' bullwhip :)

That color is multi-faceted, from different strands and angles it appears very rich.

For these reasons I prefer dyes by hand

Mr. Celeste, thank you very much for sharing those beautiful pictures!
Your attention to each and every detail (like the knots, the hitches, the shape of the fall, the engravings on the ferrule/end of the heel knot and the overall designs) is mindblowing!

All the best
Ben

I LOVE the two Gaucho (and Gaucho ring knot) at the transition! It is original and differs from most whips! The plaiting is beautiful as always....including the belt!!!

The heel knot and the Gaucho pattern on the handle...... Perfection!

Gio, it is absolutely stunning. To see the natural beauty of the hide along with the craftsmanship... Perfect.
