Leather
All the leather skins come from leatherworkers' damaged, soiled or badly cut scraps. These leathers are recycled using multi-cutting techniques. While the color and material remain identical, the shade of the leather can vary slightly from one piece to another. All leather scraps from production are reused as patchwork for other garments or accessories.
Leather-care: dry-clean only. Avoid contact with water. Waterproof at the start of each season. Feel free to apply specialized nourishing cream for leather.
Aluminium
The aluminum is sourced in Switzerland, recycled if necessary through partnerships based in Geneva, cut, processed and professionally polished in Switzerland. All aluminum scraps from the collection are reused for other garments or to make accessories.
Aluminium-care: avoid prolonged contact with water, with perfume. Avoid balling up. To not machine wash.
