In order to create their elegant handmade products, designers collaborate closely with Dominique Saint Paul's team of artisans to discover distinctive techniques like leather patina or leather printing. Of these techniques, the patina method stands out, achieved through a painstaking manual dyeing and painting process. This not only elevates the leather's inherent charm but also imbues it with a rich depth of color, developing a unique character with each wear.
Initially, the leather possessed a pristine, blemish-free surface, like a blank canvas. Over time, leather undergoes transformation, developing its own shine and color. The magic gradually takes place, as the skin absorbs the colors of the environment and the oils from the hands that touch them, creating a unique symphony of colors. Skillful leather printing techniques combined with a unique design language are the perfect foundation for Dominique Saint Paul to create products with timeless quality.
