the wet moulded leather tray has been cut from a full grain 3.2mm vegetable tanned, washed and barrel tumbled tuscan horse culatta leather with a rotten corpse matte black water based based dye finish. the leather features multiple layers of a two tone liquid rubber treatment, depicting a free falling celestial object.
culatta is a special cut combined of the rear just above the cordovan, the belly middles and the hind shanks, offering a dense structure, tight grain and medium to firm temper. vegetable tanning is a traditional method of treating the hide using natural extracts such as tree bark, for a truly artisanal finish.
crafted from a single piece of leather, the tray has been wet moulded over a 24hour period to form the base and shape of the abstract silhouette. strategically placed stitches add a little structure to the shape.
the leather tray is suitable for holding rings, coins and keys.
each piece comes in a hand made leather package.
custom leathers, sizes and finishes are available upon request.
