Leatherworking atelier tour in Gijón

Reliquiae, the leatherworking atelier founded by Héctor Jareño in 2012, opens its doors to visitors for a tour of its premises. The tour starts in the showroom, where visitors will get an explanation of the principles that inspire the design of each seasonal collection. They will then go to the workshop in the same building, where they will be shown the skins and other materials as well as tools used in the bag-making process. In the workshop the artisans will present samples of work at different stages of production, from cutting and trimming to dressing, painting and sewing. The guided tour must be booked in advance.
