The animal stands for the quality of the leather:

strong and softWater buffalos are characterized by their gentle and peaceful temper. This is also confirmed by Henri Henrion, the owner of the buffalo farm “Bobalis“

we work with: “The intelligence and strength of character, but also thespecial sensitivity of these impressive animals fascinated us right from the beginning – and require gentle, very patient handling.“

Their very thick skin protects them from different weather conditions and

allows keeping them outside throughout the year. These influences are

responsible for the distinctive look and feel of the surface of the organic

buffalo leather: Distinct, visible pores and the rough grain give it its traditional

look. At the same time, the durable material provides pleasantly soft seating

comfort. Another characteristic: We use the leather’s full substance with a thickness of 3.5 to 4.5 millimeters.

Large pasture areas, balanced diet and appropriate handling of the animals characterize the living conditions of buffalos that are owned by breeders who we

choose to work with. A few years ago, also farmers in Germany discovered the buffalos‘ special characteristics and since then, profit from the very nutritious

milk and premium meat. By collaborating closely with ecological buffalo farms, which produce in accordance with organic standards, we at MANUFAK

-

TURPLUS now complete the value chain and manufacture our own leather for the HARDOY BUTTERFLY CHAIR.

Precious rarity of Naturale

The principle of adequate animal housing excludes mass production of this

leather. Therefore, each of our covers made of real, organic buffalo leather is

not only unique, but also a rare gift from Naturale. We appreciate it through

accurate material usage, German handcraft and purely vegetable tanning

with Naturalal colors. That is why it is possible that on occasion we mightnot be able to meet all customer’s orders immediately. But: Patience will pay off for sure.

The HARDOY BUTTERFLY CHAIR with organic buffalo leather is unique in the

world and can only be purchased at MANUFAKTURPLUS.
