ADDITIONAL DETAILS

Minerva Box Vegetable Tanned Leather comes from the Badalassi Carlo Tannery in Tuscany, Italy. They are well known for their traditional methods of vegetable tanning with tree barks that go back 100’s of years. Badalassi Carlo is a member of the exclusive Pelle Vegetale Consortium certifying they tan leather using the strict traditional vegetal methods. We offer serialized certification tags you can attach to your finished products HERE 

This veg tan leather is their top grade, it is full grain and has a nice supple feel with a small amount of firmness. Minerva Box is a vacchetta leather that is infused with special blend of Italian fat wax giving it the famous hand and feel attributed with the vacchetta name. The grain has a natural pebbled texture that adds beautiful depth to the leather. Because it a natural pebble grain, it may have some slight variation in pebbling throughout the hide. It is easy to cut and skive as well.
