How our poufs are made

1. Tanning
Our poufs start as hides that are cleaned, softened and tanned by hand in traditional Moroccan tanneries.

2. Dyeing
Artisans dye the leather, then stretch it on wooden frames to dry in the sun. This takes about three weeks.

3. Cutting and stitching
The dried leather is cut into panels and sewn together by hand. The patterns on top are embroidered by hand as well.

4. Finishing
Each finished pouf is cleaned and treated one by one to soften the natural smell of the leather and protect its color.
