This Swaine Adeney product is hand crafted by artisans just outside of London using English Bridle Leather. The pigmentation and colouring of this hide is done by hand using organic vegetable dyes. As part of the tanning process, the leather is liberally fed with tallow and oils, which gives it a waxy finish that turns to a wonderful patina with use. This is a leather that ages very well.

In order to keep this leather in good condition, it is best to polish it occasionally with a soft cloth and leather polish. Polish will be provided with your purchase.
