Artisanal Craftsmanship
The "Original + Hidden Reinforcement" philosophy endows the Essential collection with contradictory beauty—a seemingly effortless looseness conceals 18 meticulously calculated production stages. Preservation of Original Leather TextureLeveraging Taurillon’s superior quality, the Essential series boldly employs single-layer Taurillon leather, achieving a "soft yet structured" form through ingenious composite construction.
Cicada-Wing Edge-Finishing
Single-layer Taurillon allows edge oil to penetrate and fuse perfectly with the leather, creating flawless integrity. Edge thickness is rigorously controlled below 0.3mm, with semi-transparent gradient transitions at seams to amplify Taurillon’s matte, fog-like grain. Each edge undergoes.
Base Layer
A full Taurillon leather panel is embedded as an invisible support chassis to prevent deformation.
Surface Layer
2mm Taurillon leather retains its original cut edges, with exposed leather base and unbound edges showcasing natural texture. This "anti-industrial" approach enhances handcrafted authenticity while maintaining structural rigidity and minimalist aesthetics through hidden reinforcements.
4-layer application
French-imported plant-based resin oil is applied at 45°C (cooled from 60°C molten state)
20°C curing
Each layer cools to 20°C before recoating.
Beeswax sealing
Final ironing forms a crack-resistant protective film.
