The most creative of all our leathers ever made.
Luxe appears as if it is a glazed calf, with rich dyes soaked into the hides, originally pounded with an agate and now delicately heated and pressed to impart that same richness, shine, and depth. From an era of high quality. A true "see-into" leather.
Only the best hides, the purest, no blemishes, just natural beauty can be used. It's a long process. It's a laborious process, but this is what creates greatness.
Nothing to keep it from aging and developing a special patina as it gets older and older. Not for everyone. The best of the best.
Light sensitive, a naked aniline leather, brilliantly shined to present exciting design possibilities.
That's OUR leather. A sophistication and elegance that no one else can produce and few understand. This is leather in its purest sense. The most luxurious of all our products.
