Tannery Selection

I make an effort to source from tanneries that are members of the Genuine Italian Vegetable Tanned Leather Consortium — a collective committed to sustainability, transparency, and generations of craftsmanship.

These tanneries uphold strict environmental standards while preserving the traditional art of vegetable tanning.

Vegetable Tanned Leather

Tanneries

  • Conceria Walpier

    Walpier "Buttero" comes in a variety of colors. It is on the firmer side which makes it great for wallets and cardholders.

  • Conciaria MPG

    Their "Apollo" leather comes in a great range of colors and its medium temper is ideal for making bags.

  • La Perla Azzurra

    This is another firm temper leather, well-suited for making bags. This leather has a particularly strong and wonderful smell.

  • Alran Tannery

    Alran tannery is located in France and is not part of the consortium. They produce the beautiful Chevre that is used in my bags. They are still committed to upholding ethical and sustainable practices.
