Deer Mesh
Two layers of extremely thin deerskin are brought together and made into a mesh. The mesh design makes the stole light, supple and comfortable to wear. The leather used is a sustainable material from venison producers in New Zealand. A leather stole may give the impression of being hot and heavy, however the extremely fine leather and mesh design solve this issue. Instead the leather adapts to the skin and becomes soft and supple over time. A special design features traditional gold leaf from Kanazawa, Japan's center of gold leaf production.
