NEWSLETTER October 2011
Heaven, Earth and Fishleather We’re in seventh heaven after the incredible response we received at Le Cuir à Paris in September. Our new brochure, Exotic Fish Leather, was literally snapped up, and we’ve had to keep our feet firmly on the ground to handle all the orders for swatches and samples that have poured in for our lighthearted autumn/winter range 2012/13. Thanks, everybody! You’re wonderful!
Modesty is a virtue… …but we just can’t resist blowing our own trumpet… when it comes to finishes, we’re in a class of our own! We offer stunning effects with new finishes, for every new range. How do you make a winter range lighthearted? The simple answer is: a small palette of colours, and exciting interplay with finishes. Blue, black, red, orange. Plain old black acquires an exotic luxury feel with a new finish. Come and see for yourself – we’ll be at Lineapelle in Bologna, Italy, 18-20 October, at Stand C30, Hall 16. Yes, that’s right – the same place as last year!
