A unqiue hand bleaching technique is than used to create the aging like effect and brush stroke feel, giving it an amazing antique like finish.
Design Challenge
The challenges come from perfection the right mold of the shoe and design as well as the pattern and exact placement of the seams. Many prototypes are made to finalize the right cut, size and stitch line end of each pattern to end with the best design aesthetic to the foot. Other challenges include perfecting the patina painting on each Part separately while creating a consistency for each color and piece in the pattern, as well as layering perfectly each pattern layer without over whelming the leather so that it keeps its natural supple and new exterior. Also perfecting the placement of the calligxraphitti is challenging since certain leathers should be more visible than others for aesthetics and significance reasons.

It is as you are working almost the same as on human skin, you have to be very carefull as any mark will show and it doesn't heal.

We than sourced the best tanneries and importers that supply high grade italian calf leathers.

Our master cutters carefully cut the patterns and prepare them to be sewn after the natural rest of the skin.

The patterns than are stenciled with the calligraphy pattern and a master artist carves in the pattern, once finished it goes to the patina artisan to start the hand patina process.
