Hand painted marble patina.

Our colouring and finishing workshop is headed up by Luan, a self taught leather colourist and one of the co-founders of Dominique Saint Paul.

Luan believes that hand coloured patina on leather is art.

The alcohol based dye colours are from Italy and they are applied by hand on a special leather called crust.

One or more colours may be applied, one at a time, to create unique colours that are really one of a kind.

The final step is to use Italian creams and waxes to bring a bright and lustrous shine to the leather.

Pictured here is a new hand coloured marble patina effect that Luan has been developing for some time.

The painting pictured here has been made on small leather goods, but equally could be made on shoes.

We regularly accept commissions to create special colours.

Almost any colours are possible as the basic colours can be combined to create new colours.
