Foschia

Origins

Foschia means "mist" in Italian. It is characterized by its appearance, covered in white wax like a morning mist. As you use it, the wax penetrates the leather, revealing a translucent finish.

Tanning and Manufacturing

Made from bovine shoulder leather from Northern Europe. After vegetable tanning, the surface is lightly buffed (polished) and then treated with white wax. The tanning agent used is derived from the tara pod, a legume native to South America. Although rare, it produces the lightest color among vegetable tannins and offers excellent lightfastness. This allows for a whiter tan than usual, achieving beautiful light colors using only dyes, without pigments. Natural marks may also be visible.
LWG (Leather Working Group) environmental certification Gold rated.

Maintenance

As the wax gradually penetrates, it develops an elegant and natural luster. Furthermore, it contains an appropriate amount of oil, so oil care is unnecessary unless scratches or dryness are a concern. For more details, please refer to here.

Light colors are delicate on the surface and prone to visible stains and scratches, so careful handling is required.

Colors

※ Due to monitor environment, as well as differences in dye absorption depending on the condition and part of the original hide and the season, the displayed color may differ slightly from the actual color.
