About our Artist: Peruvian leather artisan Berardo Santos says, 'When I took a job helping out in a leather workshop, I found the work fascinated me. As the days went by and I saw all the wonderful designs, I went crazy over tooled leather. It's an incredible art and I find it so exciting. Even so, I didn't see it as a possible career. I started crafting shoes, creating new models and designs. I'd ask shoppers what they'd like me to make, and they gave me the idea of creating tooled leather purses and accessories. I also relied on my own intuition and have been able to develop a style of my own. I love the hand-embossing. I enjoy the challenge of each design, the more complicated, the better. I love this work! My inspiration comes from our rich Peruvian culture and our colonial heritage. My dream is to be successful and to share the fruits of my labor with my family. As my workshop grows, I want to help the community by offering job opportunities through art.'...
