Atelier de maroquinerie au Rastro de Madrid
Description
Cet atelier offre aux participants la possibilité de créer leur propre objet en cuir personnalisé, en utilisant uniquement leurs mains et un peu d'imagination. Les participants peuvent choisir entre un portefeuille, une pochette de voyage, un sac à main, un étui à lunettes… ou peut-être préfèrent-ils créer quelque chose d'autre. La procédure n'est pas compliquée et le professeur sera là pour vous aider tout au long du processus. La satisfaction de créer un objet artisanal utile, durable et esthétique est sans pareille ! Un autre point fort de cette expérience réside dans le fait que l'atelier est situé au cœur de Madrid, dans la partie la plus ancienne de la ville, dans un quartier appelé La Latina, à proximité de la place de la Cebada. C'est un quartier où se tient chaque dimanche le plus grand marché aux puces, appelé El Rastro. El Rastro regorge de boutiques et d'étals d'antiquités et d'artisanat, ainsi que d'une multitude de restaurants, bars et cafés. L'une des rues principales est la Ribera de Curtidores, ou rue des Tanneurs, où l'on trouve de nombreuses boutiques de maroquinerie.

Michael is very kind and explains the entire production process very clearly. He guided us step by step on how to make our piece, in addition to sharing his knowledge as a leatherworker. We felt like leather artisans for a few hours. 😊
Miguel is the best! He walked us through whatever project we chose step by step. We learned about the old way of hand made leather goods including the tools and how to use them. My friend and I made large leather wallets. I’m very pleased with my final product!
Super nice and knowledgable artisan. He told us he produced pieces for theatre, collectionists, GoT when they filmed in Spain and even Ferran Adriá. Welcomes you with open arms and helps you craft a piece on your own. Very recommended!
We arrived early and walked up the hill to a small plaza with benches. The weather was lovely and we felt comfortable resting and looking around at the homes and businesses. Michael met us at the door and we took the very small lift to the 5th floor. His workshop held all sorts of leather projects, tools, drawings and a panoramic view of the city below. He gave a choice of several projects. Then he shared information about the various sources for leather (not for the squimish) and how the hides are prepared for leather work. We were able to pick our preferred project, the color and type of leather we wanted to work with and then Michael walked us through step by step, cutting the shapes, gluing and sewing the piecework and adding snaps for closures. Everyone who participated took home a finished product and it was something substantial that took effort and time and that we could be proud of. Thank you Michael for your time and patience with us. Definitely recommend.
My family attended the leather workshop. Michael did a great job teaching and guiding us through the process. All four of us had a great time. I would highly recommend taking this workshop.
This was a great experience. Mike was awesome and hospitable. The only bad thing is we walked up five floors to get to the workshop.
Michael is super skilled yet patient at teaching and helping you with your project. While Spanish, his English is native level. I enjoyed the class so much and the glasses case I made that I scheduled another class the next day so I could hone my skills and make another one.
My wife and two daughters, 11 and 15, did the workshop. They loved it , found it went very fast despite 3 hours, the productions are beautiful and the teacher very cool. Brief to do without hesitation. And if you're not in the nice neighborhood, allows you to see another side of Madrid
The address to find the place was little confusing but when we figured that out the craftsman Mikeal was very skilled and informative.
We enjoyed each making a project. Michael walked us through the project and they turned out great. I would recommend this activity.
