Limoges and the Limousin region are historically renowned for leather and hide work, with a documented craft tradition dating back to the 11th century. The quality of the Vienne River's waters and the pastures suitable for raising livestock have historically supported this leather industry. Saint-Junien, located within the same region, is home to traditional tanneries that continue time-honoured techniques passed down through generations. Luxury goods manufacturers such as Hermès, Dior, and Chanel source leather goods and gloves from workshops operating in the Limousin region, maintaining the area's reputation for high-quality leather craftsmanship.
The Daguet and Agnelle workshops operate retail boutiques in the region where visitors can purchase leather goods and handmade gloves manufactured locally. The J.M.
