Meet Keren the Founder of Keriko Studio for a Leather Atelie

Working with leather is a timeless craft — one that invites patience, precision, and creativity.

In this hands-on workshop hosted with Keren Haddad, founder of Keriko Studio, discover the fundamentals of leather craftsmanship through a guided and accessible experience. Since 2016, Keren has been exploring leather as both a material for sculpture and artisanal design, creating timeless objects that combine functionality, aesthetics, and craftsmanship.

During this two-hour session, participants will learn how to work with leather step by step, focusing on the beauty of manual work and the satisfaction of creating something with their own hands. Guided by Keren’s expertise, you will be introduced to the basics of cutting leather, assembling pieces, and applying press studs and rivets.

You will have the opportunity to choose your leather from a curated selection of colors and craft one of three essential leather accessories:

• a glasses case
• a wallet
• a card holder

Working at your own pace in a relaxed and collaborative atmosphere, you will discover an authentic artisanal savoir-faire inspired by the techniques Keren applies in her practice, from leather goods to decorative design.

This workshop is an invitation to slow down, reconnect with the value of handmade objects, and immerse yourself in the tactile pleasure of working with leather.

By the end of the session, you will leave with a handcrafted leather accessory, durable and timeless — a piece created by you, designed to be used and cherished for years to come.

No prior experience is required — just curiosity and creativity.
