Today, October 18, I’m thinking about my next project: which leather to use, which colors to combine, and which model of matera to make.
Before I begin, there’s a moment I really enjoy: imagining the piece, looking at the materials, and deciding how to bring it to life. Every matera is handmade, and those first choices are part of its story.
I’d love for you to see that side of El Indio Matero too: the materials, the colors, and the work behind each bag. Visit my videos page to see the process and get to know my workshop routine.
If you’re visiting El Indio Matero and have any questions about my materas, I’d love to hear from you. Whether it’s about the leather, a color, or a particular model, you’re welcome to ask.
Send me a message at any time, 24 hours a day. I’ll reply as soon as I can.
Thank you for being here and following the journey, one handmade matera at a time.
