Our Fundamental concept :
Almost anyone can make beautiful and practical leather goods at home with a limited amount of resources and simple tools.Like what? All of the Artmant products!
Why learn with us?
- Economically it is worth it.
- Over the past 10 years, we have developed unique designs that fit the above concept: We teach you how to do what machines can’t do.
- It is not just learning a craft, it is learning an art, and it is a lot of fun.
- It is an affordable luxury.
- Local production opportunities.
- The opportunity to learn it professionally and make a business out of it.
Why am I interested in teaching?
- My passion is design, not mass production, and teaching is a way for me to give and take inspiration.
- My designs are based on what can be done by hand, not for machines. In this way I can avoid well-equipped workshops and reduce the cost of packaging, labor and shipping, and I want to spread this style and mentality around the world.
