Sauvage Leather


Sauvage Leather A sauvage is a top grain, semi-aniline leather. It has two-tone effect, which adds depth and character to the leather, producing a marbled or creased appearance. The fabric resists spills and provides long wearability. It is extremely soft.

The mottled or marbled appearance is created by blending two similar dyes in the coloring effect. The leather is dyed twice. The first time, a dark dye is introduced to the leather. Next, a lighter dye is used. It can be also done vice versa. The look is created because the hides are tumbled during the dyeing process.

Like aniline, sauvage is also an expensive type of leather and is taken from the most carefully selected skins.
