Add-ons
Leather defines the character of every JAMES REDWOOD piece. Ours was custom-developed in Tuscany for natural beauty, substantial structure and the ability to grow richer with age.
Leather Specification
- Origin: Tuscany, Italy
- Tannery: MPG Conceria
- Hide: French bovine double shoulder
- Grain: Full grain
- Tanning: Vegetable tanned
- Finish: Aniline
- Thickness: 2.0-2.2 mm/5-6 oz
- Certified by: Italian Vegetable Tanned Leather Consortium
- LWG rating: Gold
Selected for Strength and Character
- We use substantial 5-6 oz (2.0-2.2 mm) full grain French bovine double shoulder. By retaining the hide’s strongest outer layer rather than sanding it away, full grain leather preserves its strength, texture and distinctive grain.
- We choose the slower, traditional vegetable tanning method for the structure, depth and exceptional ageing characteristics it gives the leather. Plant-derived tannins create a firm, characterful leather that responds beautifully to handling and use, gradually deepening in colour and developing a distinctive patina.
- Aniline dyes keep the natural grain visible, while oils and waxes create its smooth, supple hand and rich depth of colour. Natural variations in grain, tone and markings ensure no two pieces age exactly alike.
Made in Tuscany, Italy
- Our leather was developed with MPG Conceria, a family-run Tuscan tannery established in 1963 and specialising in vegetable tanned bovine leather.
- Our leather is certified by the Italian Vegetable-Tanned Leather Consortium, whose exacting standards govern Tuscan origin, traditional vegetable tanning and leather quality.
- It also holds the Leather Working Group’s highest Gold rating for responsible leather production. Every hide is fully traceable and sourced as a by-product of the food industry, making use of material that might otherwise go to waste.
