Leather
Horse culatta, taken from the inner side of the hide, is a material that refuses to be tamed. Dense and almost cartilaginous at its core — the very zone that gives birth to cordovan in traditional shoemaking — it softens toward the edges into something closer to suede. Raw, unfinished, and deeply alive, it ages with honesty, developing a patina that is entirely its own.
Iron Details
Wrought iron is not an accessory at Tagliovivo — it is a signature. Each hook, clasp, and fitting is hand-forged individually by skilled artisans, shaped by hammer and heat rather than mould or machine. No two pieces are ever identical, and that is precisely the point: in a world of perfect replication, these small imperfections are where the craft lives.
