Vibrant Echoes of South America
Our South American hides represent more than just a material—they capture the essence of vibrant festivals, rhythmic tambor drums, and the passionate spirit of South American life. From rugged mountain landscapes to the refined charm of the pampas, these hides showcase intricate artistry through distressed tipping and two-toned textures. Every mark—whether a brand, neck hole, or unique pattern—stands as a testament to authenticity, reflecting the untamed elegance of large South American bull hides.
WHISPERS OF TRADITION

ECHOES OF THE PAMPAS
The long-established traditions of South American craftsmanship give life to leather that is not only functional but brimming with character. Rustic tones and textures invite touch, bringing the vibrancy and energy of this remarkable region to every hide.
Leather Cleaning & Care:
Cleaning and care instructions are broken down into three different groups: pure anilines, protected leathers, and nubucks. With all groups avoid placing in direct sunlight (under windows or skylights.) All materials will fade over time when placed in direct sunlight. Also, general household cleaning products are not recommended as they can break down and damage the leather’s surface. See the groupings below for more individual cleaning and care instruction.
Pure Aniline Leather
Just like your own skin, leather must be maintained and cleaned on a regular basis, not just when the furniture looks “dirty.” Leather furniture should be vacuumed (with a drapery nozzle) on a weekly or biweekly basis. After furniture has been vacuumed, dampen a clean white cloth with distilled water and wipe the leather to remove any dust particles that the vacuum may have missed. You may clean spills or stains with a clean white cloth and distilled water. Wipe the area until the water turns the leather dark; allow the leather to dry before repeating the process. Do not use any type of soap or alkaline products on the leather, they may cause the leather to dry or crack.
