In fact, even if products are labeled as "genuine leather products," their prices vary widely. The price difference depends on the design and manufacturing process, but it is not uncommon for the difference in leather material costs to be more than 10 times greater. Why is there such a difference? The reason is described below. There are two main methods of manufacturing leather. "Chrome tanning" and "vegetable tanning". Currently, the majority of leather on the market is leather tanned using ``chrome tanning'' chemical components. Chrome-tanned leather has the advantage of having a relatively uniform surface, being flexible, and resistant to heat. In addition, the cost is low because it can be finished in large quantities in a short period of time, but on the other hand, the real pleasure of using genuine leather is that it is less likely to change over time. Scratches and stains over time do not change and remain as scratches and stains, appearing as "deterioration" to the eye. In other words, [chrome tanned leather is a material suitable for mass production, and it is the most beautiful leather when it is finished.] On the other hand, "vegetable tanned" leather that is tanned using the astringency of plants is called "tanned leather." Tanning of tanned leather is an ancient method. The finish retains the texture of the original leather, and the surface is susceptible to natural scratches and blood streaks, and the texture varies depending on the area. Since it takes a long time to finish, it is expensive, and it is difficult to say that it is a stable material, but it is a leather that you can enjoy changing over time, such as the change in luster and the deepening of the color over time. [Nume leather is made using an old-fashioned method, which takes time and cost, but I think it can be said that it is a leather that you will love over time, rather than being perfect when you hold it in your hands.] I think what everyone is looking for in a material called leather is "a material that can be used for a long time." “Since you own a leather product, I want you to choose a leather that will change over time.” Based on this idea, KALEIDOSCOPE's products are produced with a focus on "tanned leather". [If you are looking for intact leather products, please refrain from purchasing] Since it is a natural material, there may be natural scars and unevenness here and there, but we purposely cut it to include the scratches. Please note that there may be some minor scratches. It may be a bit worrisome if you think of it as a "scratch", but this is also proof that the leather was alive. I think that being able to enjoy scratches and unevenness is unique to handmade leather and genuine tanned leather. [Commitment to metal fittings] All metal fittings other than the kiss lock bag are made of solid brass. Brass is considered a ``metal that brings good luck'' in Europe and America, and was also used as a talisman. Like leather, it is a material that gets better the more you use it. [Commitment to production] *Make it by hand as much as possible. KALEIDOSCOPE's works are made with a focus on ``cutting by hand as much as possible with a leather knife that I sharpened myself,'' from making the patterns to cutting the leather.
