Expertly Tanned in Italy
Using centuries-old vegetable tanning methods perfected by Tuscan master tanners, our full-grain cowhide develops a rich, organic patina that improves with age.
Built for Generations of Use

Remarkably Easy to Maintain
Unlike modern leathers, our antique finish:
– Conceals wear beautifully – scratches blend into the patina
– Requires only occasional conditioning with our specialty wax
– Repairs seamlessly – local artisans can restore without reupholstering
