-Horse Nume BLACK VINTAGE- Commissioned to Shinki Hikaku, whose philosophy is to manage all processes from tanning, dyeing, to finishing in-house. Recognized worldwide for their history, love, and pride in horse leather, they use 100% vegetable-tanned pit tanning. Even in an age where efficiency is prioritized, they continue the pit tanning of horse nume, which takes the longest time. Please enjoy the firm yet flexible feel, the lustrous edge achieved with simple polishing, and the deepening luster with use, all characteristic of pit-tanned horse nume. The Art of Dyeing The core of the horse nume is dyed without permeating the dye, creating an intentionally uneven black base. Then, a translucent brown-ish color is dyed over it, and this complex dyeing process creates the unique color of this black vintage.
The Art of Finishing After applying a thick sheen through glazing, a crumpling process is performed to create wrinkles and a frosted effect. The crumpling process brings out a richer expression of the grain surface due to differences in fiber quality across different parts of the leather.
We use the wonderful characteristics of horse nume and the techniques of Shinki Hikaku, who have long specialized in horse leather, to create each piece of this horse nume Black Vintage, based on a manufacturing standard built to maximize its potential.
