Skin & Stone Boutique

I arrived in Montreal 19 years ago to attend the National Circus School. After school I went on tour with Cirque du Soleil, and while I was on tour a friend gave me some leather offcuts. I started learning to make wallets and jewellery in my free moments between shows, with materials I found in the different cities I was in, and after a year I had a full suitcase as a travelling workshop. When I came home after the tour, I kept learning different techniques, and I now have a studio at home where I make my bags, wallets and jewellery in Montreal between my touring periods. I really like working with leather in beautiful patterns and bright colours.
