COW LEATHER
Our cow leather comes from French cows and is tanned in Italy with vegetable products.
Cow leather frames will gain patina and darken over time depending on the pH and acidity of the skin and with exposure to UV rays.
Cow leather tanned with vegetable products is free of chrome and therefore does not pose any risk of allergies.
The skins go through a manual process that gives them a smooth texture while maintaining the consistency of the material.

Leather care instructions
Clean your frame with natural soap, especially to remove spots or an excess of oil:
Place the frame directly under cold water while massaging the leather to help it absorb the water.
Apply scent-free natural soap on the front and the branches for a few minutes. You can use Marseille soap or soap made specially for leather.
Rinse thoroughly.
Dry the frame by patting it with a clean cloth.
Let it dry completely overnight.
Remove traces of make-up from the leather:
Put some micellar water on the tip of a cotton swab. Remove any excess water and clean the leather.
Remove a scratch on the leather:
Massage the leather with your finger and the soft part of your fingernail or with a flat rounded object.
Your optician can follow a specific procedure to reinvigorate and clean your frames at their shop.
