03Colour mixing & process
- Cleaning
- Colour matching
- Dyeing black
- Making and fitting the chain
- Finishing
The dye was worked in while keeping the crinkled grain of the aged calfskin.
The chain was made to a length and weight that suit the bag’s rings, then attached. This was separate from the dyeing.
