Actually, even if it is indicated as "real leather goods", its price is quite varied. Although the difference in price depends on the design and manufacturing process, it is not uncommon for the same real leather to produce a difference of more than 10 times even if you compare it in the place of "material cost of leather". Why so much difference? The reason is described below. Leather can be roughly divided into two manufacturing methods. "Chrome tanning" and "vegetable tannin tanning". Currently, leather that is on the market is dominated by leather tanned using "chrome tanning" chemical ingredients. Chrome tanned leather has the advantage that the surface is finished relatively uniformly, flexible, and resistant to heat. Also, because it is finished in large quantities in a short period of time, the cost is also cheap, but on the other hand, it is also a leather that makes it difficult for "aging", the real pleasure of using real leather. Scratches and dirt of aging will remain unchanged as scratched dirt as it is, it will be seen as "deteriorated" in the eyes. In other words, [Chrome tanned leather is a material suitable for mass production, I think that it can be said that the most beautiful leather when finished]. Meanwhile, the leather tanned using the astringent taste of "vegetable tannin tanning" is called "leather nume". Nume leather tanning is an ancient process. The finish with the texture of the raw skin kept in, the surface is easy to be affected by natural scars and blood traces, the softness also varies depending on the part. It is costly to finish over a long time and it is hard to say that it is a stable material, but leather that can enjoy the "aging change" such as the change of gloss by long use and increasing the color depth. [Nume leather is an old manufacturing method, it takes time and cost, but it is not perfect when you put it in hand, I think that it can be said that leather is growing attachment over a long time. What you are asking for materials of leather, does not it mean "long lasting material"? "Because you have leather goods at a great price, I'd like you to choose leather that you can taste the change by using it for long." From that idea, KALEIDOSCOPE's work is focused on "Nume leather". 【The leather used in this work is manufactured by Italy · Tempesti company, it is the finest Italian shoulder. "The more beautiful you use it," I chose the most suitable material considering long use. 】 It is a fine Italian single bat made in Tempesti, an old-fashioned tanner located in the Santa Croce area, which is said to be the birthplace of vegetable tanning even in the Tuscan region where numerous tanners gather. We do not use natural color unevenness finished with 100% dye and do not do "finishing" finish but we take the time and take 1.5 to 2 times normal amount We are using leather characterized by oil bucketter finish. [Brackets are using solid brass as much as possible] Like leather, taste comes out enough to wear. As you start to use, because leather is tight, you may find it hard to close the bracket, but it will become familiar as you use it. Since the spring hook also wears out, if you make it easier to close it from the beginning, we will make this kind of adjustment as there is a risk that the hook will become loose in a short period of time. [Commitment in production] As much as possible by hand. The work of KALEIDOSCOPE sticks to "making it by hand cutting with the leather kitchen knife that I sharpened as much as possible". I also produce paper patterns on thick paper and hand cutting. I would be happy if you feel the feel of hand-made work one by one.
