Calfskin

Grafea Calfskin

Here at Grafea we carefully chose the best quality calfskin for our bags.

Our caramel coloured leather is vegetable tanned using wax and other traditional ingredients and has got a gorgeous vintage-look finish .One thing that you probably did not know is that it is also anti-allergic and will get darker as it ages which will add tones of character to the bag.It also does not stain in the rain.
