What it does
A set of blocks in graduated heights that builds levels inside a case. Risers do not hold pieces; they hold the pieces that hold pieces.
Saffiano leather on a riser set, specifically
Pattern direction has to be consistent across the set, not just colour. Specify it once and the set matches; leave it unsaid and two risers will read differently.
Getting the proportion right
Three heights is the usual working set. The proportion between them matters more than the absolute size.
How saffiano is applied to a display form
The cross-hatch is embossed into the surface, so it has to be aligned across adjoining faces or the join is obvious. On a curved form the pattern distorts, which is why saffiano suits flat and faceted shapes better than busts and cones.
Where it is used
Any case that needs depth rather than a flat plane.
Saffiano under case lighting
The texture breaks up reflections, so a saffiano display never shows the hot highlight that plain leatherette does under a spot. It also hides fingerprints, which matters on anything a customer or an assistant touches.
The mistake to avoid
Risers covered in a different material from the trays on top of them fight each other. Specify both together.
Why saffiano leather
Saffiano is leather pressed with a fine cross-hatch and sealed. The texture catches light along an edge and the coating shrugs off the handling that plain hide would show.
Wipe clean. It is the leather finish to choose for display that is moved, restocked or handled every day.

Frequently asked questions
Can riser sets be made in our brand colour?
Yes — the saffiano leather is matched to a Pantone reference or a physical swatch, and confirmed on a sample.
What sizes do riser sets come in?
They are made to your dimensions. Three heights is the usual working set. The proportion between them matters more than the absolute size.
Is saffiano leather a good choice for a riser set?
Pattern direction has to be consistent across the set, not just colour. Specify it once and the set matches; leave it unsaid and two risers will read differently.
What goes wrong most often with riser sets?
Risers covered in a different material from the trays on top of them fight each other. Specify both together.
Can riser sets be made to match our boxes?
Yes — the same saffiano leather and the same colour across boxes and display, ordered in one run.
