Pueblo
A vegetable-tanned leather from Badalassi Carlo in Italy with a distinctive matte, slightly waxy surface and a tight, firm grain. Pueblo starts structured and develops a beautiful burnished patina with handling — areas that take friction will darken and shine while the rest stays matte, creating a natural contrast over time. It holds its shape well and has a clean, understated look that suits both everyday carry and desk use.
