Martinez C.

The Martinez C. Workshop produces beautiful, high quality pieces with traditional Colombian artisan techniques under the direction of founder Eduard Martinez. After receiving his vocational training, Eduard dedicated himself to the production of bags and accessories across different materials, but exploring Colombia's tradition of leatherwork was the ultimate inspiration for developing his own business. Eduard obtained his degree in fine arts at the University of Antioquia and now resides in Bogota. He perfected his mastery of leatherwork at the school of art in Santo Domingo and has continued to hone the craft for the past decade. His work integrates old world leather techniques with Colombia’s own Andean traditions to develop contemporary accessories. Eduard aims to perfect each articulation of his work, using the best leathers and tanning practices in Colombia.
