Vegetable Tanning
Natural tannins from tree bark, roots and leaves replace synthetic chemicals. This slow, time honored method creates leather that develops a deep patina and character as it ages.
Crafted in Tuscany. Designed to endure. Each hide is treated with patience and skill through a traditional, natural process.

Hides are gently soaked and cleaned to remove impurities, then softened to reveal the natural grain and flexibility. The focus is on honoring the integrity of the material.
Over several weeks the hides rotate in large drums, slowly absorbing tannins that give them strength and rich color. Once tanned they are oiled and conditioned for lasting suppleness.
Finishing is kept minimal to preserve authentic texture and aroma. Natural markings remain, celebrating the individuality of each hide rather than masking it.
Italian vegetable tanned leather is revered for longevity and depth. It does not just last. It evolves, gaining character with every year of use.
