LEATHER & RATTAN
PIGMENT FRANCE calf leather comes
from northern Europe.
It is tanned in Italy with a special treatment
that makes it waterproof and scratch-resistant.
The creations made by our artisans in northern
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
that the real magic happens: the challenge
of covering curved surfaces and taking everyday
objects to a new level of luxury and sophistication.
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.
