Leather Character & Craftsmanship Disclaimer

At Gfeller Casemakers, we use primarily natural, minimally processed leathers. These leathers are intentionally not covered with pigments or finishes that hide the natural story of the hide. As a result, each piece may display variations such as range marks, scars, surface texture changes, or other natural characteristics.

These features are not defects—they are evidence of the genuine origin of the material and part of what makes each piece unique. Our brand identity embraces this honesty in materials, and we believe these characteristics speak to authenticity, durability, and tradition.

Our guiding principle is functionality first, paired with a thoughtful effort toward a pleasing appearance. Because natural leather is subjective, a feature one customer values as character may not align with another’s preference. We carefully inspect every item to ensure it meets our standards for performance, durability, and serviceability before it leaves our shop.

We also strive to use our materials responsibly, minimizing waste and honoring the full hide whenever possible. Every square inch matters.

By purchasing a Gfeller Casemakers product, you acknowledge and accept the natural variations inherent in our materials and trust our inspection as confirmation that your item is suitable for its intended use.
