Suggest you take a look at the offerings of Lobo Gunleather and Tucker Gunleather. Both make high quality leather goods in slightly different styles. The ones I have are worth what they cost, and the wait is reasonable IMO. I have a 2.5" M19 or 66 riding in one and it sure dresses up that snubby. That's a mighty nice piece of iron you have pictured there. It deserves a piece of high quality leather. You can find that at either place I've mentioned.

I’ve got a Lobo IWB holster. While not made to show, the fit and finish is great and customer service is superb. This holster also fits my model 10 snub with a little extra below the barrel.

Is that a new model 66? If so, how are you liking it? I am thinking about one of those for me.

M10 holster
I had MTR Custom leather make a paddle holster with a thumb snap which I love. They have other styles with and without thumb snaps. Price was good and wait was about par with other custom makers. This was the fourth holster I bought from them. And I'm still a happy customer.
BTW They made it for the 2 inch barrel not a 2.5 inch.

Mernickel Leather in northern Nevada makes a forward tilt OWB rig that holds the gun securely if the holster is held upside down, yet does not impede the draw. Also holds the grip close to the body, an important consideration.

Here are a few of my favorites for carrying my model 10. Left to Right:
Lawrence 34V (pigskin) Special Agent, Lawrence belt, & Puma Prince knife.
Lawrence 32FL, Lawrence belt, & Bear knife.
Ken Null RSS (Revolver Super Speed)
Lewis Cross Draw (Joe Friday's choice)
Bianchi 5B Been selling well for over 50 years.
PS The Puma Prince knife would look good with
those grips on your model 10.

That sharp looking snubbie doesn't appear to be your edc so maybe it's more of a bbq rig you're looking for?
You might consider the forum's own 05CarbonDRZ.

He crafted one for my Baby Chiefs: perfect fit, superior quality, quick service and a great price.
My two bits.

Lobo Gunleather also offers your selection of carved & stamped designs for their holsters. Visit their website. You won't be disappointed.

Look at Privateer Leather
I’ve had great success with Wes Dahl and Privateer Leather. Superb workmanship and customer service. I have many of his holsters for various handguns, use them in my IDPA matches as well as carry and couldn’t be happier.
Trust me- you won’t be disappointed

The first thing to consider when holster shopping is what the intended use of the gun is, and how you want to carry that gun for the intended use.
If you don't know how you want to carry it, then you can't buy a holster.
Well, I mean you can buy a holster, but you will most likely go through half a dozen of them via trial and error until you discover what carry method is best for you.
This equals $$$ loss. I know first hand, and have numerous extra holsters now. It was my fault because I didn't really know how I wanted/needed to start.
I went with a Desantis thumbreak speed scabbard for my EDC. A nice OWB high ride, held close to my body and completely concealable.
What do you need?
