MORE ABOUT OUR METALLIC LEATHERS

Each metallic leather in our collection is finished by hand using low-impact, artisan techniques that let the hide breathe, age, and evolve with time. We never coat our hides in plastics or synthetic layers. Instead, we apply metallic treatments that retain the natural flexibility and texture of the leather—making them ideal for high-end design projects that require both durability and style.

Our Patagonian leathers are traceable, sustainably sourced, and finished in our own family-run workshop, ensuring quality control from start to finish.
