Van der Spek - New 'Janet Leather' colours

Van der Spek Leather Goods have recently added three new colours to the 'Janet Leather' range of custom leathers. 


I was fortunate enough to be sent some leather samples of all three colours, therefore I've scanned them in on a flat-bed scanner, so you can see the texture and colour in a larger image. 

Cobalto is a very light blue, but to my personal point of view not too light or 'washed out' 


Cenere is a plain neutral grey colour. 


Iris at first glance looks very similar to the Cenere grey above but at different angles you start to see just a subtle hint of purple


At a more acute angle and using a camera, you can start to see the purple tone in the leather!


'Janet Leather' is described on the Van der Spek website as thick, firm, natural grain, smooth and pebbly parts, delicious smell, rich leather. These full-grain cow hide leathers from Tuscany, Italy.

The original Janet leather is the brown one with number #104. This leather is sensitive to water and dirt since it does not have any finish, just an open structure. Therefore you have to love leather that will change and get a patina look as well.

These three new colours are available now for Custom Orders. Please see the VdS website for details. 

Thank you to Van der Spek for the leather samples.
