Such lovely products and very well made. Bought a purse, small zipper pouch and some luggage tags. Will be back for gifts during the holidays. Owner and staff were extremely nice and informative. The owner gives classes and I can't wait to try one!

I've been looking for a leather backpack for a while now and have not found something that "sparked joy" until now. I love the quality of this messenger bag/ backpack.
The smell of the store is mesmerizing! They have quality products made here in Mexico. I would definitely recommend this store to anyone who loves leather.

I got some gifts for my fiance's family, and they all loved them: three travel toiletry organizers and a bag. Great products and excellent customer service. Definitely coming back on my next trip to Querétaro ☺️!
