Focus on Our Transfer Process

O ur transfers are created through a unique heat-transfer process that allows for any color combination to be firmly embedded on the leather’s surface with the most intricate of detail. It is a two-step or three-step process (dependent on desired finish) that can be applied to any of the colors in our Satin Suede, Cottswald, Dauphine and even our Ragtime collection. During the first step, the pattern of your choice is applied to the leather’s surface using a clear finish or glaze. The second step allows you to layer another finish such as platinum or gold over the clear finish to further enhance the transfer’s glamour and appeal. If desired, a third step can be applied to achieve an even brighter, shinier aesthetic or a more matte appearance. As you know from visiting our Web site and reviewing our box and showroom displays, we stock samples of a variety of transfer patterns in the most popular colorways and finishes. Samples of patterns in alternative colors and finishes are made to order on 5X8 samples. The lead time is two weeks for custom samples if the base is in stock. If the base color is not in stock, the selection of an alternate color is recommended. Additionally, many more patterns are available from our suppliers. If your client is looking for a specific design that we do not stock, please send an image or direction on the desired aesthetic to your customer care representative and product development will check with our suppliers for options.
