What is Barenia leather made of?
Barenia is a rare kind of calf leather, featuring a matte texture with a touch of gloss. To achieve this outcome, the leather is double-tanned in vegetable and chrome dyes, then soaked in nine different oils for five to six weeks. You can find vintage and contemporary Barenia leather pieces from some of the world’s top boutiques on 1stDibs.
