The story of a trade, values and know-how
Pure craftsmanship
Girona had never been a land of furniture, but a land of tanneries and leather, and Banyoles was a landmark in this field. In the early 1970s, one of the most important tanneries in the city came up with a new, very ambitious project: to manufacture upholstered furniture with its own product.
To learn the secrets of the craft the company managed to gather a group of craftsmen and send them to England
Crearte, founded more than 40 years ago by the master upholsterers who emerged from that first batch, is the heir to this initiative.
