History
Quil Ceda Leather Co. was founded in 1932 by Mathias Jansha when he brought his skills as a tanner from his native home in Austria to America. He settled in Marysville, Washington and established Jansha Tanning, wholesale and retail business, that has continued in operation at the same location for over 60 years. In 1981 the business name was changed to Quil Ceda Leather Co. when a group of the most experienced staff of Jansha Tanning assumed ownership of the business. Today, the owners have more than 80 years of experience in leather tanning and production of leather products.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“History ... is, indeed, little more than the register of the crimes, follies, and misfortunes of mankind.
But what experience and history teach is this—that peoples and governments have never learned anything from history, or acted on principles deduced from it.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
“I believe my ardour for invention springs from his loins. I can’t say that the brassiere will ever take as great a place in history as the steamboat, but I did invent it.”
—Caresse Crosby (1892–1970)
“If you look at the 150 years of modern China’s history since the Opium Wars, then you can’t avoid the conclusion that the last 15 years are the best 15 years in China’s modern history.”
—J. Stapleton Roy (b. 1935)
