Taupe in saffiano, specifically
Taupe saffiano is the counter box for a shop that sells everything. It hides handling, matches across runs and does not date, which is the whole brief for a house colour.
What taupe does for the piece
A grey-brown neutral that sits between warm and cool, so it does not commit to either. That makes it the safest single colour for a mixed range of metals and the least interesting one for a brand that wants to be remembered.
What taupe shows
Almost nothing, which is its main practical virtue. Marks that would show on grey or ivory disappear into it.
Which metals and stones taupe suits
Everything, moderately well. It is the colour to choose when one box has to serve gold, silver and coloured stones equally.
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.
