From &Liebe: The leather we are currently using is called VONO OIL from Tochigi Leather, and it has some grain and some doesn't.
We consulted with Tochigi Leather through their craftsman, and they readily agreed to develop an original leather.
-It has the right hardness to protect the pen from impact.
-It is smooth leather with a smooth surface.
We started developing a leather that met these two criteria.
While retaining a matte texture similar to the current VONO OIL, we made the leather harder and firmer, and increased its strength to protect the pen from external impacts.
*When we tried to make the natural leather version with smooth leather, the color changed considerably. We decided that it would be difficult to produce smooth leather in the natural leather.
The natural leather version will remain the current VONO OIL with both smooth and textured leather

A well-made, thoughtful product for your important pens.
With a big love and appreciation for stationery, &Liebe was started as he realized that he could not find products that met his needs. He designed this Zip pen case for himself in order to be able to protect his pens and fountain pens, but also serve as an esthetically pleasing cover. This leather cover is meant to age and follow along with you on your long writing journey.
With the intention of supporting the craftsman in Japan, this product was designed and made in Japan.
From &Liebe:
We use Tochigi leather. The VONO OIL leather from Tochigi leather feels good in the hand, and features natural grain and beautiful aging. It is natural vegetable tanned leather.
*Pens with a shaft width of up to 30 mm will fit
This product uses Tochigi leather, which is characterized by its natural grain. Depending on the part of the leather there are areas with strong grain/texture and areas with more subtle grain. The unique grain makes the leather's appearance one of a kind in the world. When you receive your product, take a look at the grain and enjoy the soft, fluffy texture.
Please Note: You cannot choose the amount of grain or texture. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in advance.
Regarding the material used on the inside: We use a high quality material called Ultra Suede from TORAY, a major textile manufacturer. It is very comfortable to the touch and protects your precious fountain pen. I would like people from overseas to experience how good it feels to the touch.
Materials used: Tochigi, Japan leather, Toray ultra suede, brass

*Please note that the texture and color of the leather may vary.
