In the Corners of Our Studio

We came together out of a shared love for handcrafted leather, turning this small studio into our second home.

There are no bosses here, no KPIs, no roar of heavy machines —
only the quiet rhythm of handwork, the scent of leather, and the focused gaze we share while shaping every piece.

In this post, we’d love to show you a few corners of our studio.

They may seem ordinary, but they hold the traces of our daily craft — and a few secrets only artisans would notice.

We have developed a complete set of custom tools uniquely our own, delivering performance and tactile quality well beyond that of the renowned Blanchard.

It took 7 years and 3 iterations to reach this final form. Despite its proven reliability, we still handle our tools with the same care and respect as always.

This is our tool wall. These are the tools we’ve gradually retired over time. Though we no longer use them often, they remain by our side every day—like old friends, quietly witnessing each creation.

This is our thread and accessory rack, where everyone comes to match colors. The centralized setup makes it easy to access and use. In the center is the leathercraft master certificate of one of our artisans.

Sunlight pours through the window onto the workbench, as two artisans quietly craft leather goods — a poetic moment of handmade artistry.

From February to April, pink kapok blossoms bloom just outside the window by the bar table. Inside, skilled hands stay busy; outside, spring quietly unfolds.

This is one of our most trusted workmates — the sewing machine.
It’s usually the busiest in the studio, and yes, sometimes we even have to queue for it.
Unlike in factories where each stitch might be done by a different machine, we have just four sewing machines here — and each one handles multiple steps.
For beginners, sewing machines can be the hardest to master. Different leather types, thicknesses, and tensions all require delicate adjustment.
But for us, these machines are old friends. We know exactly how to tune them, and switching between processes has become second nature.

The edge skiving machine — our trusty workhorse. Since 2017, it has never had a single breakdown.

In the summer, dogs love coming to the studio with their humans —
the air conditioning is cool and cozy, and there’s always a perfect spot for a lazy nap.

Just outside our studio lives a stray cat mom.
One day, her little kitten snuck in quietly —
without her knowing — and made itself at home.
It loves being here, playing with us and exploring the space.

There’s more to come — our studio is full of surprises!
