Leather work workshop – Creation of a strength bracelet
Sarah Rigal is an artisan saddler and harness maker who has been self-employed for several years. She is a specialist in animal harnessing and also offers saddlery and leather goods. Passionate about leather work, she opens the doors of her workshop for a discovery workshop, which will allow you a first approach of her job and of leather in general.
You will start the workshop with a 10 minutes presentation, in order to get to know Sarah and discover her background. Then, it’s time to practice! You will choose your leather with the help of your instructor, as well as the accessories needed to make your bracelet and you will begin your creation. Sarah will guide you step by step in the creation of your own personalized bracelet.
You will finish the workshop in a friendly atmosphere, with a presentation of your creation and a small discussion over coffee (tea, homemade lemonade, or whatever you wish to share with your classmates). This workshop, lasting 2 hours, is a great first approach to the craft and to leather!

About
S.R. Equestrement Vôtre
Once I had my master’s degree in history and archaeology, and after a few months of reflection, I realized that, in order to combine my love of horses and my need to work with my hands, I needed to move towards a more manual profession. After a one year training at the Haras de La-Roche-sur-Yon with Michel Charrier (MOF), a period as a saddler and harness maker at the Ecomusée d’Alsace, I have been self-employed for more than 2 years. The heart of my know-how is the harnessing of horses, as well as other animals, such as oxen, goats and dogs for example. I also make different items of saddlery and leather goods, keeping some equestrian elements, like harness buckles and the leather used is usually the same as the one I use in the harnessing.
