The Limousin has always been a land of livestock farming, and the region’s creative craftsmen have been able to exploit and draw inspiration from the resources that surround them. As far back as the 11th century, tanners and leatherworkers were numerous in the region, particularly in Saint-Junien, and played a major role in the region’s economic and industrial development. Now more than ever, luxury leather goods manufacturers and Haute Couture designers have a special relationship with the glove makers of Saint-Junien: Hermès, Dior, Yves Saint-Laurent, Mugler… All over Limousin, talented craftsmen create exceptional products that make the region famous the world over.
