Care

VEGETABLE TANNED LEATHER

Our Italian Vegetable Tanned Leather is a classic leather that shows its wear beautifully over time. Vegetable Tanned Leather is produced by using natural tannins.

The leather will age and darken into a rich patina over time which will make the leather more supple.

CALF LEATHER

Our Italian Calf Leather is a smooth, refined leather with a polished finishing. Although recognized for its longevity, it is still prone to occasional scratching if not handled with proper care.  We recommend occasionally treating this leather with a leather conditioner, which will help keep it hydrated.  To prevent the leather from developing marks, we recommend avoiding exposure to abrasive surfaces and always taking care to store the item properly in its dust bag when not in use. For lighter colors in this material we also recommend avoiding exposure to dark denim or other dark fabrics with loose dye, as the leather could be subject to color transfer or stains.

SAFFIANO LEATHER

Our Italian Saffiano Leather is a coated, textured leather with a subtle, cross-hatched pattern on its surface. It is a durable material, resistant to scratching and moisture.

For lighter colors, avoid exposure to dark fabrics with loose dye, as the leather could be subject to color transfer.

LAMB LEATHER

Our Italian lambskin is an ultra-smooth, buttery leather. Lambskin is recognized for both its soft texture and longevity.

We recommend a leather conditioner for hydration. Avoid exposure to abrasive surfaces and store the item in its dust bag.

TUMBLED CALFSKIN

Our Italian Tumbled Calfskin is a textured, soft leather with a semi-sheen surface. Although recognized for its longevity, it is still prone to occasional scratching if not handled with proper care.

We recommend a leather conditioner for hydration. Avoid exposure to abrasive surfaces and store the item in its dust bag.

SUEDE LEATHER

Our Italian Suede Leather is soft with a velvet-like finish. Darker and vibrantly colored suedes may stain lighter colored materials if placed in close contact.

Pre-treat the leather with a suede protectant and avoid exposure to liquids. Occasionally treat the leather with a suede brush to help smooth any marks or indentations.
