Design: These hides feature a corrected grain, refined to enhance visual consistency while maintaining a natural appearance. The lightly pebbled surface is finely textured, carefully mimicking the organic wrinkles of the skin, resulting in a balanced blend of character and polish.
Overall: Elegant, modern and beautifully tactile, this Italian leather’s deep evergreen tone, glossy surface and structured yet supple handle make it an exceptional choice for designers and makers seeking quality, refinement and timeless appeal.
Properties:
Texture: Smooth, finely textured grain on the face with a pronounced glossy sheen. The surface feels sleek and refined, paired with a firm yet softly brushed suede back.
Handle: Structured with a controlled suppleness. The leather holds its shape well while remaining workable, making it ideal for applications that require definition, clean lines and durability.
Drape: Naturally substantial with a more disciplined drape. Slightly heavier and more structured than our Matte Leather Hides, it maintains form while still allowing for gentle movement and shaping.
