A BRIEF WORD ABOUT THE LEATHERS
Due to the fact that leather is a natural material there is often a variation in colour between types of leather and indeed between individual skins. We are always pleased to send colour samples of our stock leathers.
SADDLE HIDE is tanned in the traditional way with oak bark and plant extracts to produce a firm leather with a close, even grain. It is very hard wearing and will mellow with age and use. Bags made in this leather are usually unlined. It is available in black and chestnut.
Our ITALIAN leathers are produced for us by a tannery near Florence. They are full grain leathers tanned using natural plant extracts. The skins are carefully selected to show the natural character and beauty of the grain. They are stained and polished by hand to produce a slightly antiqued finish with a richness and depth of colour that only the Italian tanners seem able to achieve.
TABAC is a deep tobacco brown colour with a pronounced natural grain and a polished waxy finish.
SIENNA is a dark chocolate brown, again with a prominent grain and polished finish.
MOMBASSA is a rich dark brown showing less natural grain and with a more matt finish.
LONDON is a traditional pale tan is the most natural of the leathers. It is perhaps not the most practical of colours as it has little in the way of top finish and will mark very easily.
BLACK MATT is a smooth matt leather showing minimal grain.
BLACK CLASSIC is a polished textured grained leather.
