Notes from the workshops.
Care guides, maker visits and how we work.

Care
How to care for full-grain leather
Leather wants a dry cloth, a little balm twice a year and somewhere to breathe.

Makers
A day in the leather workshop in Lyon
Clémence Aubry cuts every bag from one hide. We spent a day at her bench.

How we work
What our condition grades mean
Every object we list has a grade from A to C and a short note. This is how we decide, and what we won’t sell at all.

How we work
Packing a chair to travel
Saar’s Frame Chair weighs four kilos and has one fragile joint. Here is how it travels.

Makers
How a watch is regulated in Biel
Jonas Feld times every Night Field movement in five positions before it leaves Biel.

Care
Choosing a pedestal for one object
One object on a pedestal looks deliberate. A few rules on height, width and light.
