What is Tan Leather?

We make all products from the vegetable-tanned leather creation skills utilized by Japanese tanners. The vegetable-tanned leather is made with tannin taken from plants such as a mimosa. This traditional process takes time, but the finished product is well worth the wait, as the process accentuates the original texture and shade of the cowhide. We appreciate the quality of the natural leather, which can bring wrinkles, patterns, and color differences to our products. We hope that you will enjoy the natural texture of this material, as it is far different than what you would get from anything that is mass produced.



How do I maintain my product ?

Brushing the leather after use is a good way to prevent dirt and mold accumulating. We recommend using the horsehair brush to clean our products. Treating regularly with oils designed for leather, such as mink oil, is more effective than brushing alone. Water and other moisture may damage the item. If you are concerned, utilizing a waterproof spray will help prevent this. However, using sprays such as these may delay the aging process of the leather If you scratch your product, try buffing it out with a cloth or brush, as this may reduce the visibility of the scratch.
