Black | Pebbled Leather
Designed in Switzerland, handmade in Italy under fair working conditions using high-quality materials
MATERIALS
Leather All our leathers are sourced in Italy and certified by the Leather Working Group (Gold or Silver rated).
Soft Grain Leather - Subtly textured with a natural, matte finish. Soft to the touch, flexible, and resistant to everyday scratches.
Pebbled Leather - A more pronounced grain with a slightly structured feel. Durable, low-maintenance, and ages gracefully over time.
Suede Leather - A brushed, velvety surface with a rich texture. Softer in appearance, requires more careful handling.
Saffiano Leather - A cross-hatch pressed finish with a firm, structured feel. Highly scratch-resistant and water-repellent.
More details on each leather type can be found here. Find out how to care for your bag here.
Hardware All metal parts are gold- or silver-coloured, nickel-free, and finished with a protective coating for lasting durability.
Craftsmanship Designed in Switzerland. Handcrafted in a small family atelier in Northern Italy - where precision work and a love for the artisanal process have been passed down for generations.
