Carlos Peñafiel is a self-taught Chilean artist who learned leatherworking in Brazil before settling in Paris in the 1970s. His work explores molded leather, wood, and bronze, often pressing moistened leather into a mold to produce sculptural forms.

He has collaborated with the fashion house Lemaire for over a decade, and two accessories developed from that collaboration, the Carlos bag and the Egg bag, have appeared in Lemaire collections.
