Long-lasting design

How long will our leather last? Short answer - More than a lifetime! The quality of the leather pretty much dictates how long the leather lasts. At Laviver, we only use high grain leather (also known as full grain leather). We won’t waste our time guessing how long faux leather would last. This is something you definitely need to avoid. Bonded leather is the lowest grade leather, made from scraps and has a very short life span. Genuine leather is the next level when it comes to leather quality. It doesn't last as long due to the lower grade grain. In 2nd place is top grain leather. It is pretty durable, but won't last as long as our full grain leather. This is what most brand names sell as "top quality". Finally, we have High Grain leather - the cream of the crop leather money can buy. With proper care, it surpasses all of its counterparts in durability, strength , design and beauty. This type of leather develops a beautiful design and character as it ages with daily use. This is what we pride ourselves with at Laviver.

Environmentally friendly factories

At Laviver, we are focused on the revival of the ancient technique of tanning with plant extracts. Bark, wood, berries, roots and leaves are used to color and preserve the hides, producing far less harmful waste, and a biodegradable leather.
