Tuscan Vegetable Leather Consortium

We are proud to guarantee that all of our leathers come exclusively from a tannery that is a member of the CONSORZIO VERA PELLE ITALIANA CONCIATA AL VEGETALE .
This prestigious Italian organization brings together artisans selected for their ancestral know-how and their commitment to exceptional vegetable tanning.

Thanks to the signing of an official contract with the consortium, JFL benefits from the Vera Pelle traceability label: each leather used is certified , numbered, and accompanied by a certificate attesting to its origin, ethical sourcing, and environmentally friendly processing method. This label is synonymous with authenticity, superior quality, and transparency at every stage of our product manufacturing.
Membership in this consortium offers you the guarantee of responsible, sustainable leather goods that respect the tradition of leather.
