Quality: Pull-Up Aniline Hide Size: (Av) 4.5 sq metres Thickness: 1.3 – 1.5mm

PHOENIX is a drum-dyed, ‘Pull-Up Aniline’ leather, as defined by the Commercial Leather Association of Australia &
New Zealand. It is designed to exhibit a distressed look that is at the same time traditional in appearance yet highly
sophisticated.

PHOENIX has been retanned in the traditional manner with vegetable matter, thus combining toughness and
suppleness. Produced only from European rawhides and with a thickness of 1.3-1.5mm this leather is reminiscent of
a beautifully aged saddle.

As with all Pull-Up Aniline leathers, PHOENIX will exhibit at times extreme colour variations, particularly when
stretched. Nature’s handiwork in the form of scars, growth marks, fat wrinkles etc are proudly on display.
