"What a pleasure it is to work with Niagara leather... I love this leather, which combines robustness and suppleness. For the "Marguerite" besace, I work with shoulder. I emphasize neck wrinkles in my creations. The leather patinas very well over time and gains in suppleness. As all my creations (made with saddlery leather) are entirely hand-made (cuts and seams), it's very important that the tools react well. The half-moon knife and the abat-carré glide along the entire length of the piece being worked, and it's a very pleasant sensation. When I present the different shoulder color by unfolding the hide in front of my customers, their reaction is always the same: they caress the hide and one phrase comes up regularly: 'that's leather'."
