Stonewash Leather

Overview

Cortina’s Stonewash begins with the finest, aniline grade South German bull hides, meticulously selected for their tight, firm hand and beautiful, full grain. The hides are then vacuum dried, a process which adds density to the leather and creates a silky-smooth texture. A careful hand polishing then enhances the sheen. There is no topcoat applied to the surface, resulting in a classic naked, pure aniline, transparent finish that allows the natural characteristics to be evident. Stonewash will develop a patina over time and age gracefully in response to everyday use.
