The Etrivière belt is entirely handmade in France. Its material, the famous leather Novonappa®, formerly known as Barénia leather, and the quality of the craftsmanship brings to this everyday accessory a certain chic that adapts to any outfit.
Novonappa® leather, black
Novonappa® leather, formerly known as Barénia leather, is a French leather that sets the standard for luxury leathergoods in natural full-grain calf. A secret double-tanning process results in a unique natural finish.
Its softness of touch, depth of colour and the patina that develops with time are hallmarks of its distinctiveness.
The bracelet Guibert is as refined by its beautiful Novonappa® leather, formerly known as Barénia leather, and saddlery stitching as it is strong and sensually audacious. Made in France.
We created the wallet Slim Guibert as a challenge : carry life’s essentials in the smallest and thinnest wallet. Made in Novonappa® leather, formerly known as Barénia leather, this natural grain brings elegance and discretion.
The padded snaffle bridle Atherstone is made from an extra-slow vegetable tanning with a natural calf padding, two luxury leathers, made in France, bringing together both performance and elegance. Its ergonomic headpiece and noseband, widened and quilted with a soft leather, brings comfort to the horse as well as a better sensation and precision. Comes with a removable noseband.
Created 60 years ago at Barr, in Alsace, Novonappa® leather, formerly known as Barénia leather, is one of the best leathers in the world. The double-tanning secret—vegetable and mineral, with the skins treated by tumbling in warm air—is known only to a single tannery, and is an expression of the finest in French craftsmanship.
Originally used for saddles, its qualities were spotted by luxury leathergoods makers who made it their first choice for natural calf leather. The sensual feel, the patina that comes with age and its supple and firm structure combine in a leather particularly suited to the making of belts and small leathergoods.
Its natural finish makes it sensitive to scratches. (See Care Instructions.)
Care instructions
In order to preserve the beauty of your leather products, we recommend that you note the following advice :
.
◌ Keep your product away from abrasive surfaces that might scratch or mar the finish.
◌ Protect your product from humidity and direct heat like radiators or closed cars in summer.
◌ Avoid contact with the following products: liquids, hand creams, hand sanitizers, makeup and perfume.
◌ Should the bag come into contact with water, allow it to dry naturally, away from sources of direct heat. Once dry, if the leather has not returned to its natural suppleness, you can apply a neutral pH makeup-remover milk all over the piece with a soft cloth. Test an out-of-sight area first and observe the leather’s reaction. If successful, this cleaning will speed up the formation of the leather’s natural patina.
