At My Club Chair, leather is more than a material: it is a living substance, rich in history and crafted to endure for decades. That is why we have chosen the demanding path of vegetable tanning, an ancestral process that reveals the full nobility of sheepskin leather.
An Ancient and Natural Craft
Vegetable tanning is the oldest method of transforming hides into leather. It relies exclusively on natural tannins extracted from bark, roots and wood (oak, chestnut, mimosa and others).
Unlike fast industrial processes, vegetable tanning takes time. A great deal of time. And it is precisely this time that makes all the difference.
Each hide is slowly infused with these natural tannins, without chromium or harsh chemicals. The leather therefore retains its structure, suppleness and authenticity.
A Living Leather That Ages Gracefully
Vegetable-tanned leather does not hide its nature.
It evolves, breathes and transforms over the years. Light, touch and daily use create a unique patina—deep, warm and impossible to reproduce artificially.
A vegetable-tanned leather Club Chair tells a story:
your story.
Unmatched Qualities
Choosing vegetable tanning means choosing leather that is:
- Natural and responsible, respectful of both people and the environment
- Breathable, comfortable in both summer and winter
- Durable, capable of lasting for generations
- Ideal for developing patina, custom colour matching and vintage finishes
- Repairable and restorable, without losing its character
It is the leather of exceptional furniture—pieces that are kept, cherished and passed on.
The Choice of Excellence for Our Club Chairs
All of our Club Chairs, sofas and bespoke creations are crafted from vegetable-tanned sheepskin leather, selected for its refined grain and its ability to become even more beautiful with time.
This demanding choice reflects our philosophy: 👉 creating authentic, elegant and timeless furniture, far removed from passing trends.
An Exceptional Material for Unique Pieces
Vegetable tanning does not standardize. It reveals.
Every hide has its own nuances, natural markings and character. It is this individuality that makes each piece truly unique.
At My Club Chair, we believe that true luxury lies in the material, the craftsmanship and the time invested in its creation.
Vegetable tanning is its purest expression.
