Metal-free tanned leather

Where others find ways to compensate for 'natural errors', we aim to protect the authentic natural features of our leather. So, with respect to our product and the environment, all our leathers are tanned without the use of heavy metals and harsh chemicals. This results in completely biodegradable leathers in vibrant colorways.
