The term "handmade" is reserved for items made using tools of old controlled by the whim of the Artisan using skills gained through practice.
"Tools of old" refers to tools that have existed for hundreds of years. To create a high quality handmade product it is essential to have tools of high standing. At Cyartisan, we use tools from experienced Leather tool makers such as:
- Vergez Blanchard desde 1823 (Francia)
- CS Osborne desde 1826 (EE.UU.)
- Don Carlos Pikas desde 1727 (Alemania)
- Joseph Dixon Tools desde 1843 (Reino Unido)
- John James Needles desde 1840 (Reino Unido)
We chose to work with these companies as they offer the highest quality of specialized tools required to work in this beautify; although be it nearly extinct market. Their careful selection process together with the immense know-how and experience make them our suppliers of choice.
In such a niche market, the supplier and the craftsman are mutually thankful. Without each other, the market offering quality produced handmade goods would cease to exist.
