Himeji, Japan's proud leather production center
Liberato's leather products are made from high-quality steer leather (mature cowhide) tanned in Japan.
We don't waste the hides of cows raised for food.
It is a sustainable material that is carefully used as a by-product.
Steer leather is obtained from calm cattle, so it has few scratches.
It has a supple silver surface (surface) and moderate firmness, resulting in a beautiful and elegant finish.
The smooth texture and natural luster are even more appealing when combined with tatami material.
