Java Plum uses very high quality genuine leather. Slight variations are part of the natural character of the leather and are the hallmark of genuine leather. Every leather is unique and natural irregularities highlight the individuality of each product. Each of our products is meticulously handmade, one piece at a time. Subtle variations are part of the inherent nature of hand-craftsmanship.
All leather products may show some weathering with use. These are all part of the beauty of genuine leather. However, to keep your bag looking its best, we recommend the following:
Naked Leather is the most natural form of leather. It is leather for a true connoisseur. It is untreated with no finishes except dyeing. Natural markings and tone variations are part of the real character of the leather and make each bag unique. Naked leather ages beautifully over time and use acquiring a rich, honey brown patina.
