I've been work with original 1786 metta catharina leathers, J&FJ bakers russian hide also.

Introducing the Metta Catharina Culatta - vegetable tanned horse rump leather, a leather steeped in history.

Digging into the intriguing tale of Metta Catharina ship a few years ago, we embarked on a quest to uncover the secrets of the leather associated with the old recipies. After delving into century-old books, we extracted ancient tanning methods and experimented extensively. The result? A partial recreation of this lost treasure. Our Metta Catharina Culatta isn't an exact replica but embodies key tanning elements: specific tannins, animal fats, natural oils, and crucially, natural wood tars. This imparts a resilient, smoky aroma and robust protection against pests and bacteria.

Crafted differently from our standard products, this culatta boasts a unique tanning process, materials, and finishing touches. It exudes an authentic "old-world" feel, thanks to its distinctive aroma and high oil and fat content, offering a soft, yet dense and supple texture. In a groundbreaking collaboration, we partnered with Conceria Il Ponte, a tannery adorned with gold from LWG audits and a leader in the Consortium Pelle Conciata al Vegetale in Toscana.
