To be a creative craftsman is to make a life choice!

To be a creative craftsman is to have a fire within you that drives you, a precise technique that are essential for excellence, for creating a unique object.

One such artist is a leather craftsman who discovered his passion at the age of 17. He honed his skills through training at the Haras National du Pin and with blacksmiths, ultimately earning the title of craftsman in art and leather sculptor.

His fascination with history, particularly the Middle Ages, inspired him to create period costumes and armor made entirely of leather.

This Bugatti Baby T52 adventure takes him back into history… back in 1927.
