The bold, deep tones of black leather are perfectly paired with the sleek matt black finish of electroplated stainless steel. Without stitching, this minimalist pairing emphasises the refined textures of both materials. The smooth-grain, vegetable-tanned leather provides exceptional durability, while the matt black stainless steel offers a contemporary, understated elegance. This combination is ideal for cabinetry, entrance handles, and bespoke accents, delivering a sleek, monochromatic aesthetic.
