SAPHIR Medaille d'Or Vegetable Tanned Leather Cream - Cleans, Nourishes and Polishes Leather tanned by using natural tannins

Vegetable tanning is one of the oldest and most respected leather-making traditions, dating back to Antiquity. This natural process uses plant-based tannins extracted from materials such as oak bark, chestnut, and acacia to transform raw hides into durable, breathable leather. Over weeks or even months, the leather develops strength, character, and the ability to age beautifully, acquiring a rich patina and distinctive scent unique to vegetable-tanned leather. Saphir Vegetable Tanned Leather Cream has been specifically formulated to respect and enhance this exceptional material. This complete care solution cleans, nourishes, protects, and polishes smooth vegetable-tanned leather while preserving its natural finish. Richer than standard conditioners, the formula is enriched with a blend of premium waxes and nourishing agents, including beeswax, carnauba wax, lanolin, and Montan wax, providing deep hydration and long-lasting protection. Unlike conventional products, this cream maintains the leather’s authentic appearance without creating an artificial shine or altering its natural tones. Its neutral formula makes it suitable for all colours, allowing the leather’s unique patina to develop naturally over time. Ideal for shoes, handbags, luggage, leather garments, and accessories, it ensures your leather remains supple, protected, and visually refined.
