Introducing Jubilee and Jubilee Gem

Jubilee is an Italian semi-aniline leather with a consistent grain. Each hide is milled to create a soft hand while maintaining a beautiful high sheen surface. The festive color palette includes in vogue colors such as Iced Champagne, Glitter, and Rose Gold.
Jubilee Gem is also an Italian semi-aniline leather. Prior to milling, each hide is embossed with an elegant pebble pattern. This textured leather has the appearance of sparkling gemstones as light reflects off the surface. Careful milling creates a soft hand while maintaining the beautiful high sheen appearance.
Both Jubilee and Jubilee Gem are recommended for most upholstery applications, including seating, furniture, wall coverings, and accessories. These leather collections are sold by the half hide.

Introducing the Denizen Collection | A Collaboration with WRAPPED
Aug 07,2018
We’ve combined the worlds of art, technology, and luxury to create the Denizen collection. In collaboration with the talented artists at Wrapped, a fine art studio known for creating original contemporary works of art, we developed these exclusive designs specifically for leather furniture and wallcoverings. The vivid colors and bold patterns are digitally printed onto center-cut pieces of leather, adding a dramatic component to any interior.
The collection is named Denizen, meaning inhabitant, in honor of the diverse body of people that make the city of Los Angeles so special. Each design in the collection is as unique as the neighborhoods which comprise the city. Inspired by culture from all across the city, from the indie-vibe of Silver Lake, to the natural beauty of Topanga, to the street art in Dogtown, the home of Wrapped. This collection attempts to showcase the many facets of Los Angeles with a collection as simultaneously varied and cohesive as the city itself.
With the Denizen collection, we pay tribute to diversity. Not just throughout the beautiful city of Los Angeles, but throughout our entire country and around the globe. Our hope is that these unique designs help to inspire, delight, and unite us all.
