Ivory in saffiano, specifically
Ivory saffiano is the pale material that survives handling, because the texture hides the grey patches a smooth ivory develops at the grip points. It is the ivory to specify for a display box.
What ivory does for the piece
Ivory is what white should have been — the same lightness, but repeatable across materials and across reorders in a way a true white is not. It is the traditional ground for pearls.
What ivory shows
Less than white, because there is less contrast. It yellows with age rather than looking dirty, which is a slower and more forgiving way to wear out.
Which metals and stones ivory suits
Pearls above all, then bridal, antique and estate pieces that a bright white would make look new.
Why saffiano leather
Saffiano is leather finished with a fine cross-hatch press and a protective coating. It is the most hard-wearing leather finish we use.
Putting your logo on saffiano leather
The coating means foil sits on the surface rather than sinking in, so a hot-stamp stays crisp. Deboss is shallower than on plain calf, by the nature of the finish.
Cutting the interior in saffiano leather
Wrapped over a rigid shell, with the cross-hatch running square to the box edge.
Wipe clean. It tolerates handling far better than an untreated hide.
