Bruges
A beautiful naturally milled grain, Bruges reflects a cozy and refined patina inspired by the medieval city that bears its name.
The energetic color line emanates from an appreciativeness of the past, a love for the present, and enthusiasm for the future. Eye-catching natural tones complement a texture that begs to be touched.
When upholstered, the leather’s luxurious nap draws in the light and creates a soft glow.
These mild natural colors can be applied to any market, contemporary to traditional.

Leather is a natural product. Distinctive markings and nuances in its texture and color are natural in occurrence and a testament to its authenticity.
Cuttings for approval (CFAs) are recommended for this leather. Expect slight color variation & textures from each hide and dye lot to dye lot. If you opt out of the CFA process, CTL Leather is not responsible for color selections made from swatches.
CFA’s are cuttings to give a general idea of the color reference of the hide & dye lot, but are NOT expected to be an exact colour reference. Dye lot variation is a feature of working with pure anilines, semi anilines and wax pull up leathers and must be understood.
NOTE: Due to color variations on different monitors and color printers, before making exact color and texture matches, we recommend that you request an actual sample to ensure proper color representation as many monitors cannot display colors accurately. CTL Leather is not responsible for color selections made from this website or in lieu of requesting CFAs.
