The model’s form is based on neck leather’s natural qualities. The 5 mm thick bullhide gives the product its signature expression and forms the basis of the design.
For the DS-373 Designer’s Choice edition, the designer chose an open-pored and untreated neck leather that has been tanned using plant extracts. With use, a patina typical of this type of material forms relatively quickly. The Designer’s Choice steel underframe shines thanks to its burnt, matt copper plating. The raw style of both the leather and underframe makes them a perfect match.
