About Me

First, I must inform you that my English is very approximativ and if you accept me here, you will have to accept my mistakes and clumsinesses. My major activity is study and development engineer for Automotive industry. But I'm passionate by the leather work for several years and I made of that a second job.

We work together with Cody, my wife.

Essentialy for equipments of Western Riding and Bikers.

I started working with leather in a completely self-taught way 20 years ago and next I met a lot of interesting people (European and American).

The French have great difficulty sharing their knowledge, they are always afraid that the bread will be taken from their mouths (French expression). Except my Friend Jean-Luc Parisot classic saddlemaker in Saumur.

On the other hand, I found great guys in Switzerland, in Germany and in USA which are always ready to share. They helped me to progress, haved shared with me all their tips. I am very grateful to them.

 

Today, we make a lot of chaps (Chaps of  reining, cutting and other one. Armitas, chinks, shotgun and batwing), bridles, Spurs straps, belt, saddle bags, gun holster, knives holster and we do a lot of big western saddle repairs.

 

I do all the leather carving and I always try to improve my job.
