The Justice Bodan Steelshell Messenger Bag was one such item. I saw the bag upon the shoulder of a co-worker and was mesmerized by the craftsmanship, style and details. When he set the bag down, I sneakily inspected it to find the words Justice Bodan embossed in the leather. (I have since confessed to the owner, Joe Shands, that I was peeking into his bag. Yes, he forgave me).<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJLiguGJzNikhJJvfoLv9T14mA7NJXzbhHiv1g0nBp0o60kXU_RMw6kOsraD-5xZL338abJmO1juDTu_mFltulZVPRjkoWIzWYAfd7qun0hwASBQCbrbVvZwJl8fl3lMsOhgjycaFBbeEO/s1600-h/Picture+47.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303105385669022146" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJLiguGJzNikhJJvfoLv9T14mA7NJXzbhHiv1g0nBp0o60kXU_RMw6kOsraD-5xZL338abJmO1juDTu_mFltulZVPRjkoWIzWYAfd7qun0hwASBQCbrbVvZwJl8fl3lMsOhgjycaFBbeEO/s400/Picture+47.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 523px; height: 363px;" /></a><br /><br />This led me to the stunning work of Los Angeles sculptor/designer David Grieco, the man behind the Justice Bodan label and his belts, bags, small leather goods, and jewelry.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFcdZC5o0E1P1rd3W_5y3fFpL3jxHQB-RwrDbaDtQi7_LBt-UR7YTNBHiHONpBc-ffLdzRjC8UjU3DbScy2Ah4fBYVw3s-nYWTXEqnyAYibsOb0lfkLPHEcAKV2da8cwAYUWL1qWpqShyphenhyphena/s1600-h/2sculptures.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304621806065662642" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFcdZC5o0E1P1rd3W_5y3fFpL3jxHQB-RwrDbaDtQi7_LBt-UR7YTNBHiHONpBc-ffLdzRjC8UjU3DbScy2Ah4fBYVw3s-nYWTXEqnyAYibsOb0lfkLPHEcAKV2da8cwAYUWL1qWpqShyphenhyphena/s400/2sculptures.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 521px; height: 323px;" /></a><br />above: elipse and fleur-de-lys bronze sculptures by David Grieco<br /><br />An artist who has been sculpting for over 15 years, he created the fictional name and character, Justice Bodan, as a front for his jewelry and leather goods.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixEWt2fPc2hmc52AlrkH0ruC2iJwUSD3aJ0OofstMLd2dAK83B2KnkREbZgs3hVT8Tj_VlygmQ69tLo-PFNeDoTlDTUY9huaZh9nN4Y0mKZ1YBnQzrpo6p7julCWE5_rZdxILBXseLLLXG/s1600-h/Picture+42.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303108257924469874" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixEWt2fPc2hmc52AlrkH0ruC2iJwUSD3aJ0OofstMLd2dAK83B2KnkREbZgs3hVT8Tj_VlygmQ69tLo-PFNeDoTlDTUY9huaZh9nN4Y0mKZ1YBnQzrpo6p7julCWE5_rZdxILBXseLLLXG/s400/Picture+42.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 518px; height: 461px;" /></a><br />Above: The Steelshell in black or brown leather with cast bronze buckle (also shown as a belt)<br /><br />His belt buckles are amazing.

He travels from country to country, continent to continent, searching for nothing. He is only seeking to have experiences that will enable him to feel more connected to everyone and everything. Each destination helps him relate a little more closely to himself and to the human experience.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7-AreqSbariJj3aNFAXFtuzkwxSHxw9hlYSxeAEhGdQL2l14GSggD6wcpoHGyfbSmIRwVL5vTWvLAOomPLbOo2feK5WOXYgWc7qlvfwta41_5swF4y7pGo-ZO21UmDfZe_y3pBs8-POJD/s1600-h/pourbronze.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303117012332561954" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7-AreqSbariJj3aNFAXFtuzkwxSHxw9hlYSxeAEhGdQL2l14GSggD6wcpoHGyfbSmIRwVL5vTWvLAOomPLbOo2feK5WOXYgWc7qlvfwta41_5swF4y7pGo-ZO21UmDfZe_y3pBs8-POJD/s400/pourbronze.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 520px; height: 390px;" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzQ7Ef8LYYKq4fyGCBHex-DhJytC-Rbf9vc3oEHyCIz9zOAtLtwpt1riomkk16rrZW6nQyFPtzqIzExOJLXY_kHFQ2fgJ_LlrnWjAXlvwbHarvWVrJRdrM3iHzBvRcvY6pTLh77ENVvQVM/s1600-h/workingbronze.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304614725460301042" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzQ7Ef8LYYKq4fyGCBHex-DhJytC-Rbf9vc3oEHyCIz9zOAtLtwpt1riomkk16rrZW6nQyFPtzqIzExOJLXY_kHFQ2fgJ_LlrnWjAXlvwbHarvWVrJRdrM3iHzBvRcvY6pTLh77ENVvQVM/s400/workingbronze.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 526px; height: 349px;" /></a><br />above: david working with molten bronze in his studio<br /><br />Each buckle in the Justice Bodan Collection has a name with a message that correlates to the moment and destination that inspired its creation…allowing each meaningful thought and experience to blossom into a beautiful three-dimensional object. To protect the integrity and authenticity of the collection, David uses the lost-wax process, pulling each piece from a mold and then pouring it into bronze. In addition, each buckle is an original that is numbered and embossed by David personally.<br /><br />All of the leather is imported from a tannery in Italy and is of the highest quality. David individually inspects each hide to insure it compliments the accompanying metal. Every piece of jewelry in the collection is made of sterling silver.<br /><br />Each design in the Justice Bodan Collection is wearable art. Wear them with pride, and live life with love.<br /><br />Shop for the above items <a href="http://www.justicebodan.com/store/">here.</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.justicebodan.com/store/">JUSTICE BODAN</a><br />1130 South Flower Street, #401<br />Los Angeles, CA 90015<br /><br />email:<a href="mailto:info@justicebodan.com"> info@justicebodan.com</a><br /><br />For wholesale inquiries:<br />NEXUS Showroom<br />39 West 56th Street Third Floor<br />New York, NY 10019<br />tel. 212.265.0856<br />fax. 212 265 0898<br />email: <a href="mailto:info@nexusshowroom.com">info@nexusshowroom.com</a> <p></p>
