No.01Structured Calf Leather

Shop now

Smooth bovine leather is known for its soft, luxurious touch and subtle sheen. With use, it will subtly evolve in colour and texture, adding quiet depth to its finish. Use a soft, dry cloth to remove loose dirt, and seek professional cleaning services when needed to preserve its refined finish. We work with two typologies of smooth skin leather. The Hortensia uses the structured typology.

No.06Suede Calf Leather

Shop now

Suede is Italian calf leather, with LWG certification which is a unique and delicate material. Avoid contact with light-coloured clothing or upholstery, as dye transfer may occur. Because our leathers have a natural finish, we recommend avoiding excessive exposure to water. Should your bag get wet, gently remove any surface moisture with a dry cloth and allow it to dry naturally — never use heat.
Water drops may temporarily darken the suede but can return to their original tone once fully dry. If marks remain, lightly brush the surface with a soft suede brush made of nylon or other gentle bristles to even out the texture and restore its velvety finish.
Available in Space Suede, Beige Suede, Palissander Suede, Acai Suede, Olive Suede, Tan Suede, and Cognac Suede.

Each finish is selected for how it changes the way a bag is seen and felt. Every leather choice interacts differently with light, colour, and movement, shaping the character of the silhouette.
