More details

Material and style

  • Rectangular "Art Deco" style handle sheathed in green-dyed Stingray skin, its most classic version. During the dyeing process, each skin absorbs the color differently, thus offering a color chart of the same green that signs the authenticity and beauty of this exceptional collection.
  • Ferrule, in silvered brass, adorned with 4 balls, obtained by the technique of lost wax casting (as used in the art of jewelry and sculpture for the finesse of its details).
  • Head in forged stainless steel.

Use

As with all leathers, the immersion of the sleeves in water is strongly discouraged and would cause detachment.
