Materials & Leather Standards

Maison Appetit selects materials with a focus on durability, construction integrity, and responsible sourcing. This page provides clear, verifiable information about the materials used across our core range.

Leather Type Used

  • Core material: cowhide leather used across our main product range.
  • Natural grain characteristics are retained where possible.
  • Finish options such as matte or gloss may vary by product.
  • Minor variations in texture or tone are part of natural leather.
  • Hardware materials may vary depending on product design.

Tanning & Treatment Process

  • Our core leather is tanned using a vegetable-based process.
  • This approach is intended to minimise reliance on harsh chemical agents.
  • Dyes and finishes are selected for stability and surface consistency.
  • Each batch is reviewed before cutting and assembly.
  • If you have sensitivities or material concerns, we recommend contacting us before ordering.

What We Do Not Use

  • We aim to avoid mass-produced synthetic substitutes in our core range.
  • We do not use low-grade bonded or reconstituted leather.
  • We avoid excessive artificial surface coatings that mask material quality.
  • We do not use misleading material labelling.
  • We do not use exotic leathers such as crocodile or python.
