A former leatherworker turned leather sculptor, our artist invites you to explore her unique creations, inspired by nature, the plant world and animals. Her boundless creativity is based on her expertise in marquetry and sheathing. The designer seems able to bend leather to her every whim, appropriating and diverting everyday objects in a resolutely Dadaist spirit.
During your visit, you'll have the opportunity to admire some daring pieces, such as a fairy-tale leather forest. You can also watch a demonstration.

Our workshop tour showcases the exceptional marquetry and sheathing skills characteristic of haute couture. You'll discover how leather, a noble material, is transformed into unique works of art.
Sculptures, framed Kachuna dolls, bouquets of flowers... a wide range of unique, made-to-measure leather pieces in every color.
The artist cuts each piece of leather by hand with remarkable precision, heating and stretching the leather to create innovative shapes. You'll also be able to observe wire-reinforcement techniques, enabling the articulation of foliage and other creative elements.
The leathers we use are of the highest quality, full-grain or smooth-grain, and we favor natural finishes such as full-grain aniline or semi-aniline. Each creation reflects meticulous attention to the choice of materials and craftsmanship.
