An exhibition of Guadamecí leatherwork by international specialist Jorge Centofanti is currently on show at the Palacio de Congresos in Córdoba.
 
The exhibition, titled Iluminaciones del Arte Guadamecí, brings together 60 exclusive pieces of moulded, tooled, engraved, and gilded leather. It is the first time these works have been shown in Spain.
 
Guadamecí is a long-established Córdoba tradition involving the decoration of leather with gold, silver, pigments, and raised or incised designs. The technique has been maintained for centuries by regional workshops and by a small number of dedicated practitioners.
