What Casa Museo Guadamecí Omeya is known for
Master artisan Ramón García Romero revived the lost Umayyad technique of gilded, polychromed guadamecí here, and the house doubles as a museum of his large-format leather panels. A shop sells pieces worked in the caliphal manner, and guided visits trace the craft from raw hide to metal-leaf finish.
