Buttero, Rocky, Toscana & Dakota

The famed buttero leather from Conceria Walpier. Smooth surface and bright vibrant colours, this leather patinas with plenty of character. Firm temper that ages beautifully over time.

Rocky - Heavy vachetta tanned bullhide from Conceria Walpier. This leather is mid temper with a sleek touch due to the high oil content in the tanning process. It is traditionally used for belts but pairs beautifully on small goods, aging similarly to buttero without being extra firm.

Toscana & Dakota - A softer variation of Italian vegetable tanned leathers. These leathers share similar properties with buttero. Smooth matte surface, medium temper and comes in a range of vibrant colours.
