Lamy Pico Pen Sleeve (Vegetable-Tanned Cowhide)

Tanning is the process of turning animal hides into leather. Vegetable tanning involves the use of only natural vegetable tannins to preserve, strengthen and color the hide. It accounts for only a tenth of all the leather being produced today due its lengthier process as compared to chrome tanning.

Expect faster patina in a few weeks or months with our full-grain vegetable tanned leather versus our oily pull-up leather. (Except for the Coated Army Green vegetable-tanned leather which will not patina and will retain it’s coated color finish throughout its use.)

(Turquoise and Coated Army Green are currently out of stock.)
