Frequently Asked Questions

Grain is the surface layer of leather, the part we see when we buy a bag, wallet, etc.
There are three types of grain:
🔸 Full grain; this is the most prized because it has not undergone any processing that alters its appearance. The grain remains natural and intact, thanks also to the non-covering finish. To work with full-grain leather, it is essential that the animal has no scars or particular marks that would reduce its value. For this very reason, ensuring the animal's well-being is crucial! Only about 15% of leathers meet this characteristic, which is why the cost is higher.
🔸 Top grain; unlike full grain, the finish used is more covering, such as one with pigments. However, we are still talking about first-choice leather!
🔸 Corrected grain; in this leather, the surface layer is processed to reduce defects and marks. This category includes printed leathers or those with a very covering finish.
