When it comes to leather, few things are as satisfying as the development of a rich patina. For PLOTTER fans, the natural aging process of leather is not just a part of the journey of owning a PLOTTER Leather Binder, but an anticipated gift that reveals itself over time. But what exactly is patina, and how does it manifest in our PLOTTER Leather Binders?

Patina refers to the subtle changes that occur in leather over time, resulting from use and exposure. For PLOTTER Leather Binders, this process is particularly special, transforming each Leather Binder into a one-of-a-kind piece with its own story.

PLOTTER Horse Hair II leather features unique vertical striations, hand-scratched by skilled artisans to create its striking appearance and texture. As shown in the photos, two Gray Horse Hair II Leather Binders appear remarkably different. One binder, used daily for six months, has developed a beautiful patina, while the other remains pristine.

The patina on the well-used PLOTTER has evolved naturally through consistent handling. Natural oils from our hands, combined with exposure to various surfaces and environmental elements, have contributed to its unique character. The leather becomes more supple and develops dents around the ring. The color of the leather also becomes deeper as hand oil blends into the surface.
