Frequently Asked Questions
Q.
What colors are available?
Q.
What colors are available?
A.
Colors are a big topic. So let’s break it down..
Raw vs Dyed
Some of our materials are best suited for dyeing, while others are best left in their natural raw state. For example, our tobacco leather comes in shades of pigment-free browns. This imparts a deep, rich, 100% natural color. Meanwhile, our champagne chalk material offers an endless array of light and bright colors to choose from.
Custom Colors
Our material will be available in a range of standard colors, however, we also offer customized, exclusive options.
Sustainable Dye
All our dyes are Cradle-to-Cradle® certified.
