Pisa is produced by very lightly buffing or ‘correcting’ the top layer of the leather before embossing a grain print onto the finished product. The pigmentation and embossing are very light, allowing the product to retain its breathability and supple handle.
Extremely tolerant to soiling and spillage, Pisa offers an affordable option for comfortable, quality furniture in any commercial or residential application.
All colours are in stock in our Australian warehouse and available for immediate off-the-shelf delivery.
Custom colours are available on request.

Pisa is produced using only water-based dyes.
The tannery utilises some of the most advanced waste management techniques in the industry, with all tannery wastage (liquid, gas and solid) treated to European Standards on-site and again at a shared off-site facility.

Pisa will require care and maintenance to continually offer the lasting beauty and comfort that only leather can provide.
Protect from direct sunlight, as prolonged exposure may cause the leather to fade over time.
Protect leather from direct heat sources and heating vents.
Vacuum regularly using soft brush attachments to remove dust & grit.
Remove spills by blotting with a soft & absorbent colourfast cloth.
We recommend the use of Leather Master or Complete Leathercare products to spot clean and to revitalise your leather.
Do not use detergents, solvents or abrasive cleaners. Do not dry clean or machine wash.
Deterioration arising from incorrect or inadequate maintenance are not considered faults in the leather and will void any warranty.
