Vegetable–Tanned Leather

What touches our skin enters our body.
We’ve considered vegan alternatives, but with minimal organic content and up to 80% petrochemical components, they don’t align with our values.
For now, vegetable-tanned leather remains the most authentic and conscious choice we feel confident offering.

Experimentation

In our leatherwork, we experiment with processes that respect the natural qualities of the material, avoiding glues and acrylic finishes. The result is a product that preserves the integrity of its origins and stands the test of time.

What is Vegetable Tanning?

Vegetable tanning is one of the oldest methods of treating leather, based on natural tannins extracted from tree bark. For this reason, at the end of their life cycle, they degrade without releasing toxic substances into the soil. It’s a low-impact process that limits the use of chemicals, making the leather safer for both the environment and the wearer.

The result is a breathable, “living” material that evolves over time.

Certifications

We use leather certified by the “Genuine Italian Vegetable-Tanned Leather Consortium.” The certificate tag guarantees its origin and protects against counterfeiting through a unique serial number and a QR code.

The Consortium

The Tuscan consortium “Genuine Italian Vegetable-Tanned Leather” applies strict standards, respecting animal welfare, human health, and the environment. Natural tannins come from circular supply chains engaged in reforestation practices. To reduce environmental impact, water treatment is managed by centralized plants, while waste is recycled in other sectors. Chemicals—REACH-compliant—are minimized.

Leather care

To test any cleaning treatments, we always include a leather sample attached to the label.

Store products away from direct light and humidity, as these can cause damage or deformation over time. Use the protective bag provided, except for body jewels, which should be hung on a hanger in your wardrobe.

When rolling the accessory, make sure the outer side (grain side) remains on the outside.

For cleaning, use a damp cloth and, if necessary, a mild soap. Wipe gently in circular motions without applying excessive pressure. If the item gets wet, blot immediately with absorbent paper and lay it flat with a cotton cloth and a light, even weight to prevent deformation. Avoid sharp objects that may scratch the surface.

The nude color is more sensitive to stains — we recommend avoiding water and soap. Due to the tanning process, leather dyes may transfer to lighter fabrics in contact with moisture or sweat. Shades may vary between batches and naturally evolve over time.

For any questions, feel free to contact us.

Fabrics

We use unique and high-quality materials, carefully selected from the surplus of Italian luxury companies. We prioritize natural fibers like viscose, cotton, linen, silk, and wool, but we also appreciate high-quality technical fabrics like neoprene polyester.

We believe every fabric has a soul and personality, just like people.

Care & washing

Each product in our shop includes specific care instructions.

A first cold wash is always recommended, especially for natural fabrics like viscose and cotton. For tough stains, such as wine, it’s best to consult a professional cleaner.

We provide a fabric sample with each purchase, which can be used to test treatments before applying them directly to the garment.
