Calf Leather

What is vegetable-tanned calf leather? To make vegetable tanned calf leather, artisans employ natural tannins from plants, avoiding harmful chemicals. The process begins with carefully selected calf hides, which are soaked in a mixture of water and vegetable tannins for weeks. This gentle approach enhances the leather's unique grain, ensuring an honest result which proudly displays the hide’s natural marks and character.

 

 

 

 

 

 

How do you care for leather?

Regular care is crucial to preserving the leather’s lifespan and achieving a sought-after patina. We also recommend avoiding overexposure to heat, light and humidity during wear and storage of your pieces. To clean the leather, we advice using a soft, damp cloth and swiping over the piece evenly. Cleaning should always be followed by an undyed leather conditioner or gentle leather balm. Regular conditioning nurtures the leather's suppleness, natural flexibility and will help develop a beautiful patina with time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How do you care for rattan?

To clean the rattan, we recommend using a soft and damp cloth followed by linseed oil, applied using a small soft brush. This is to moisturize the rattan and encourage the fibers' natural flexibility. We recommend storing sharp objects such as keys in a protective case to avoid friction and cuts.

The Collection

By consistently developing individual products rather than launching collections, we are able to present an organic range where each product finds its place in a living collection. Our design process can be based on or influenced by a model from our extensive archive or take shape in a collaboration with an external designer, with specific knowledge of a new material or discipline. This is always done in close collaboration with the ateliers, where the craftsmanship helps us realize our vision.

A Blank Canvas

The undyed leather is initially a white canvas. Its first pale pink tone can be perceived as somewhat fragile, where every touch means leaving a mark. But this is the unique quality of undyed leather: It allows itself to be patinated and develops its color through UV-radiation, air particles and our touch. The shade moves whimsically through its colour journey and travels through a range of shades. At its earliest stage a pale and pink, shifting in shades through its teenage phase and finally settling into a soft, warm beige with unique clues of human touch. With the help of an undyed leather balm, the undyed leather immediately develops a deeper shade, while protecting the leather from dry air and unwanted stains.
