Carvajal Saddlery Opens in Floresville with Family Craft
Floresville gains Carvajal Saddlery as Ernie and Oscar Carvajal Jr resume the family saddle making business. The brothers, longtime San Antonio makers, relocate next to Carvajal Fabrication and restore the former Skarke’s Cafe site. The shop preserves handmade saddles, leather goods, and history.
