What is sustainibility?
First of all we think that Sustainibility is a RESPONSABILITY.
All of us needs to be responsible in order to guarantee a better future to next generation. We think that big aim starts always from small domestic actions. Each of us needs to enter in a sustainable attitude and behaviour and consider it as an act of responsibility. Reducing plastic consumption, trying not to waste water or switching off home lights could help the world health but it is necessary also to take care of what we buy and to the supply chain of that what we buy.

Leather production is a sustainable work because the leather skin is a food waste but our responsibility is to pay attention on each production process in order to have a more sustainable product. Tuscania put attention to the drum and finishing process and try to eliminate the Chrome and all tanning metal from production.
The Zeus collection (Goat collection) had been developed in a metal free tannage since many season but from this collection we wanted to develop this project in the half calves collection as well. We start from BASIC finishing because when we have to re write the future we always need to start from the basic. For this reason we developed the CLASSIC item in a METAL FREE and CHROME FREE TANNAGE.
The specific weight shall be light. We developed this metal free collection in a bright yellow color.

Metal Free and Chrome free items can’t be very shiny because the absence of Chrome don’t allow high temperature.
For this reason, the shiny level is more natural.
Metal-free tanned items will have a less consistent structure than traditional items.
For this reason it is advisable to choose free metal tanning only for more structured items and not for soft ones.
A new special hand stained finishing called NAPPA RAIN  or many different effect can be developed in every embossing plate..
Here below there are some example of different finishing and embossing.

Outside this ambitious project of Sustainibility the Tuscania collection is still developed in the standard CHROME tannage. All new finishing can be developed in the standard Chrome tannage that gives the leather more consistent structure without grain lost.
Quality is the highest value because the accessories must last over time. So, special finishing that gives the brilliant, very shiny and also pearlized effect. As told before shiny effect can easily be realized in the standard Chrome tannage. Shiny is also patent effect. Soft patent embossing is the new luxory. Luxory is also metallic effect that can be both realized with liquid metal or with the foilmetal.

Lockdown gave us the opportunity to discover the house and fashion is translated in comfortable and relaxing mood.
Very neutral colors or faded pastel colors. Soft hand feel and tridimensional and inflated effect that gives the idea of relaxing embrace. So, very important are the inflated and tridimensional effects that can also be developed as wrinkles and imperfect movements of the skin or a simple grain effect that gives the idea of “no smooth”.
In this Home fashion trend EMBOSSING are very small in a wax, soft and talc hand feel-colors are light and pastel.

We must restore importance and value to artisanal work. Hand made product becomes a luxury product because it is single, unique and imperfect… IMPERFECTION is a new trend.
We implemented a new finishing in the hand cut python items. They are now very soft and perfectly dyed under the scale.
When we talked about artisanal and unique product we immediately think about the IMPERFECTION of tye and dyed and all the hand stained effect that gives to the colors a sort of uncovered, not uniform.

This is the last trend that is the result of positivity for future. The recent vaccine against the COVID 19 take all of us in a positive mood.
In the world of fashion this can be seen as an explosion of colors.
Vivid colors and METAL effect together with new painting.
The metal effects should not cover the skin allover but it is a laminated effect that gives a sort of light.
The metal and laminated effect needs to light up the underground.
