Pierre Corthay was born into a family of actors and artists who lived for and from their art.
Very early on, an aunt who sculpted leather transmitted her love of the noble material to the young Pierre.
As an adolescent, he took up his actor father’s advice to join the brotherhood of French master artisans, Les Compagnons du Devoir, and to learn and perfect his art during a years-long “Tour de France”.
