Kamisaraki, I'm Wara

I grew up in El Alto watching my aunt cut leather for a saddle maker. I started with her offcuts: a wallet, then a belt, then my first Saddle bag, which took three months and eleven paper patterns before the shape was right.

My bench sits by a window on a hillside above the city, and I can see the cable cars while I work. I make to order, Tuesday to Saturday, and I answer inquiries in the evening.
