Our ethos:
To work with the best materials and create products that last:
Tactile, durable and supple veg. tanned leather from Tuscany and oak bark leather from England. Veg. tanned leather is a natural, organical material; the tone and depth of colour of the leather varies and changes with use and age, developing a beautiful patina over time. (Leather is a waste material and by-product that would otherwise go to landfill or be incinerated).
Natural 100% felted wool for its durability and softness
Solid brass / nickel hardware from Italy and England
