ANTIQUE PRESTIGE
Antique
Antique Prestige tiles are made from 4.5 mm thick cowhide. These leathers undergo a natural vegetable tanning process using tannins such as québracho and acacia. This environmentally-friendly tanning process gives the leather a natural, authentic patina with a unique charm. Discreet irregularities in appearance trace the life of the animal, as do nuances in tone, just like wood and its variations in color.
Vegetable tanning is a leather processing method that uses plant sources, such as québracho and acacia, to transform animal hides into leather. Unlike chrome tanning, which uses chemical and synthetic products, vegetable tanning is considered more environmentally friendly, with unique characteristics and a high-quality product.
Antique Prestige and Prémium tiles are made specifically from bull hide. This leather is renowned for its robustness and durability, making it ideal for demanding applications. Nuances of tone and very discreet irregularities of appearance may be present on the leather, reflecting the life of the animal and creating a unique charm... Its natural patina.
