In the age of industrialization, we choose to keep the art of hand stitching alive, a method that transforms leather into a story of resilience and beauty.
Our Essential Materials
Every product begins with the careful selection of vegetable-tanned leather, an ecological process that preserves the natural texture and unique character of the material.
Why hand stitching?
It ensures superior flexibility and strength. While machine stitching can cut the fibers, the hand stitch wraps around them, protecting them.
The Step-by-Step Process
- 1 Marking and punching: We use brass templates and the traditional awl to prepare the leather.
- 2 Saddlestitching with two needles: The linen thread is passed through two needles, creating a continuous and perfectly balanced stitch.
- 3 Finishing and oiling: We apply wax and natural oils to protect and enrich the color of the leather.
This passion for detail is found in every wallet, belt, or bag that leaves our workshop.
