The SP2000 Case is available in two types of leather and further enhances the SP2000's beautiful design and sophisticated crown pattern wheel.
The Black colour case uses Buttero leather from Walpier. Buttereo leather uses the shoulder of cow hide. Neck creases of blood vessels are slightly visible in the shoulder area. However, the chrome tanning pigment technique is not used to conceal such scratches or patterns. Instead, the leather is dyed with vegetable tannin to keep intact the natural texture.
The high fibre density allows richness of colours or excellent colour generation, like Italia, besides elasticity. Once familiarised, the moist texture of the material will be lustrous and transparent, providing a unique feeling.
Established in 1973 in San Miniato, Tuscany, Walpier Tannery has been in business for three generations and has a long tradition of making leather products based on vegetable tanning process. The tannery handles 100% cow hair leathers imported from France and is a member of Vera Pelle, Italy’s association of vegetable-based leather tanners.
The traditional vegetable tanning technology of Walpier Tannery has been handed down father to son for centuries in the Tuscany region. The tanning process usually takes 40 days by putting raw leather with natural tanning extracted from a variety of trees in a drum. This is a processing method only practised by Italian tanners of the world.
Leather products that undergo the vegetable-based tanning process show the owner’s lifestyle vividly and make the products their own as it takes a long time to break in depending on the owner’s way of handling.
