notes from natasha
In house available, no up-charge for custom designs.
It has taken many years to build relationships with some of Italy's most exclusive boutique tanneries.
This cowhide is soft with a subtle metallic sheen. It has a natural moderate resistance to water.
As mentioned, metallics are not an everyday leather. If worn often metallic leathers will age and gain character just like a veg tan leather. The look overtime is similar to a well-worn pair of jeans. Over time the leather will look distressed.
This swatch is approx 2"x2" for previewing.
Swatches are final sale.
