The five trades of the workshop<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

At the heart of the Sac du Berger workshop, five\u00a0leather professions<\/strong>\u00a0and wool live and work together. However, adopting the principles of craftsmanship, each person makes his or her own object from start to finish. Visits to the workshop (daily at 3.30pm from June to October, other periods by appointment) provide an insight into the methods and techniques used to make the objects.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Saddler<\/h3>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Originally, the\u00a0Saddler-Bourrelier<\/span>\u00a0makes saddles and harnesses for horses and, in our region, saddlery.\u00a0C\u00e9vennes<\/span>He also made a bag at the request of shepherds. In our workshop, the saddler mainly makes the\u00a0Shepherd's bag<\/a>in\u00a0five sizes and three colors<\/span>\u00a0(fawn, black and red).<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The shepherd's bag has remained unchanged in shape and manufacturing technique for at least two centuries, if not three. It's cut from full-grain cowhide, dyed full aniline and waterproofed in the bath.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thirty pieces of leather<\/span>\u00a0cut and assembled. A central part in\u00a0hard leather<\/span>\u00a0and thick structure. Around it, a\u00a0very supple leather<\/span>\u00a0and a finishing technique called \"bordage\": a 3cm-wide strip of leather is sewn onto the outer parts of the bag most exposed to friction.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The bag is\u00a0mounted upside down<\/span>The pieces are joined by a very large seam. Once the bag has been turned inside out, the seam is on the inside and therefore\u00a0protected from wear<\/span>. The balance between rigid and supple leathers, between structure and movement, is certainly the secret of this bag's longevity over the decades, not to say centuries.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Leather goods<\/h3>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

La Maroquini\u00e8re makes a wide range of\u00a0luggage<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0small leather goods<\/a>for leisure or professional use.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Each item is crafted in full grain cowhide and fully lined in pigskin to guarantee its solidity and nobility.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The workshop is involved in\u00a0valorization of skin scraps<\/span>\u00a0resulting from the cutting of parts of larger items. These pieces are used to make small leather goods. These thick leather pieces are slit to produce finer, more supple leather. All the pieces are then passed to the pareuse to prepare the edges for sewing.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Special leather sewing machines are then required.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Proud of its know-how, Le sac du Berger works with other French players. For example, we produce\u00a0leather belts<\/span>\u00a0for our partner :\u00a0Atelier Tuffery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Clothing Manufacturing<\/h3>\n

In the tradition of transhumance, the shepherd's only luggage is a sack, but he is also equipped with a waterproof, windproof cape made from pure wool, which ensures comfort and warmth when he spends the night under the stars, close to his flock.<\/p>\n

The Shepherd's cape and other capes <\/a>and jackets in full woollen, leather or cowhide are made in the workshop.<\/p>\n

From an existing model, it is possible to make modifications to the garments, however, a feasibility study and costing of the work will be carried out beforehand.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Sheepskin work<\/span><\/h3>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Lain\u00e9 skin is sheepskin tanned with wool, also known as \"double-sided skin\".<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sheepskin leather, with its \"peach-skin\" feel, is tanned with wool for unrivalled softness and warmth.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Lined slippers, vests for adults or children, mittens, gloves... the\u00a0woolly skin<\/a>\u00a0warms even the coldest of hearts all season long.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

It provides warmth and comfort while letting your skin breathe.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
