France stand apart thanks to their perfect
construction and impeccable craftsmanship.
Our talented team applies its skills to these precious
leathers and it is in the hands of these artisans

Rattan is a close relative of the palm tree.
It is a type of a vine that grows quickly in the jungles
of Southeast Asia. It has the shape of a pole,
and its diameter varies between one and three inches.
It is one of the strongest woods, highly durable
and hard to break. The solid core of rattan, along
with its vertical grains, is harvested and cut into
smaller sections before being steamed and molded
into various shapes. PIGMENT FRANCE’s
rattan is completely hand-dyed and hand-woven
by our artisans in northern France.

FINE WILLOW
PIGMENT FRANCE creations in fne willow
stand out because of the smaller rods selected
to create an extremely fne pattern.
The structure is made of rigid willow sticks
(the ‘stake’ material), around which thinner fexible
rods are woven (the ‘strand’ material).
By using only Osier (Salix Viminalis), perhaps
the most valued of the wild willows, that is
locally sourced, we pride ourselves on making a
quality, eco-friendly product.
WILLOW
Some of mankind’s earliest tools may have been
made from willow.
In PIGMENT FRANCE’s creations, willow
wicker is used almost as a textile by our artisans
in northern France. The structure is made
of rigid willow sticks (the ‘stake’ material), around
which thinner fexible rods are woven (the ‘strand’
material). By using only Osier (Salix Viminalis),
perhaps the most valued of the wild willows,
