VEGETABLE TANNED COLLECTION

Vegetable tanning is an alternative and environmentally friendly process compared to other tanning methods, which often involve the use of chrome and harsh chemicals. The method is made using natural materials such as bark, leaves and fruits, among others, and is tanning without chromium and other metals that are better for the environment.

Vegetable tanned leather has a unique look and texture with a natural and earthy feel. This means that each batch can have slight variations in color and texture, which we think adds character and personality.
