• La Bretagna- Invecchiato: Invecchiato leather is tumbled (milled), which provides a slight pebbled grain texture. The leather is then hand stained on a natural base. The tumbling helps the hand staining process because it allows for better stain absorption which therefore presents a double-tone 'marbled' coloring effect offering unique character to every piece.
