The Process
I consider the process to be the most important aspect of my craft. Quality materials without careful and considerate crafting will result in a mediocre product - that's why I perform every step by hand. Sure, doing the work by hand can be time-consuming, but I believe it results in a superior product. My goal has always been to produce the highest quality work. I want my leather goods to tell a story with every detail, a story that focuses on the finer aspects of the craft and pays respect to the techniques used by the earliest leatherworkers.
Meet the Maker
My name is Jahaira, and I am the owner of J Cuero Co. I was born in Rio Grande City, Texas, and moved to San Antonio in 2011. It’s hard to figure out when and where my passion for leather really began. When I was younger, I always loved leather work, whether it was a keychain, wallet, or bag. I remember purchasing my first leather wallet from Fossil, and never did I think that I would be able to handcraft my own someday.
I was later inspired by a video I came across online from a passionate leatherworker. I felt both intrigued and challenged. I spent countless hours researching and refining the many techniques involved in the crafting process. My first wallet certainly had its flaws, but it represented a starting point for a new chapter in my life. Wallet after wallet, my techniques became sharper, and orders started coming in for what would later be J Cuero Co. I love what I do and am so thankful to those who have supported and encouraged me. What started as a hobby has grown into this business.
My adventure is making products that you can take with you on yours.
I want to thank you for choosing J Cuero Co.
-Jahaira, Master Craftsman/Owner
