In the heart of the Tuscan tanning district, master artisans, heirs to centuries of knowledge and experience, still execute with the same patience and skill the Vegetable Tanning of the leathers: a long process based on the use of natural vegetable extracts. This process transforms the raw hides into finished leather, with total respect for the environment.
