Leather workshop: Discover the path of leather - from raw material to handmade companion

Many of you have often asked us: Where does our leather actually come from? And how is it processed?
To answer these questions in depth, we’ve created a unique workshop series in collaboration with  Regional Leather:  "The Path of Leather".

With "The Way of Leather", we want to give you insights that would otherwise remain hidden. Together, we discover how leather is made from the pasture to the finished product. Transparency is very important to us - not only in terms of prices, but above all in the origin and processing of our leather. This way, you can really feel and better understand the creation process.

After our small event in the showroom, we realized how much we enjoy meeting you in person and sharing the stories behind the leather craft. With this workshop, we want to immerse you even deeper - perfect for anyone who wants to know where the things they use every day come from and who enjoys creating something with their own hands.

Invitation to the MARAI Leather Workshop
“The Path of Leather – From Tanning to Craft”
in close collaboration with Regional Leather.

First Workshop: “From Tanning to Craft” on August 28, 2025

The start of our series is an invitation to immerse yourself in a world that usually remains hidden —transparent, artisanal, and honest. At the tannery in Tuttlingen, you’ll witness firsthand how raw animal hide is transformed into leather through a slow, traditional process, a craft that blends patience, respect, and expertise. Afterwards, you’ll get creative in the studio in Zurich: you’ll create your own small leather companion, a piece shaped by your hands and marked with your personal touch.All details can be found on our  workshop page.

The number of participants is intentionally kept small to create space—for genuine experiences, personal guidance, and meaningful exchange. Reserve your spot and book your ticket here. The early bird price is available until August 1st.

The MARAI Leather Workshop offers insight into the creation of leather and opens doors that are usually closed.

Join us!

If you want to experience the feeling of true craftsmanship, are curious about the stories behind the materials, and feel the desire to create something lasting with your own hands – then this workshop is for you. We’re excited to take this special journey together with you. Perhaps now is the perfect moment to give yourself (or someone else) something truly meaningful.

With love,
Nina & Team MARAI
