YOU ARE NOT JUST BUYING AN EXQUISITE KAT VAN DUINEN PRODUCT,

YOU ARE INVESTING IN A TIMEPIECE THAT WILL LAST FOR GENERATIONS, AND GIVING BACK TO A COMMUNITY

OF CRAFTSMEN COMMITTED TO DELIVERING UNPARALLELED QUALITY.

Our craftsmen have dedicated decades of their lives to their

craft; many have 20 or 30 years of experience. They have the

trade in their blood: a skill handed down in their families. Kat van

Duinen is committed to upholding, preserving and celebrating

the incredible artistry of this process. We are proud to say

that our leather pieces are made in South Africa, supporting

communities that have contributed to the trade for generations.

katvanduinen.com 71

CELEBRATING TRADITIONAL CRAFTSMANSHIP, PIONEERING INNOVATIVE DESIGN

DESIGNING & PROTOTYPING

Every Kat van Duinen piece is created with

painstaking care, birthed from Kat’s illustrations

and imagination, then simulated, adapted

and perfected. This development stage can

take months, with every aspect of a design

rigorously considered and tested.

PATTERN MAKING

Once a prototype meets Kat van Duinen

standards, a pattern is cut. Even intricate

details such as zip pullers receive a specialised

pattern, meticulously measured and coded.

SKIN SELECTION

Prior to creation, each style is carefully matched

to a perfectly suited skin. The unique rigidity,

size, thickness, pattern and aesthetic all make a

skin complementary to a specific product style.

Utmost care and time is devoted to sourcing

the ideal hide for every piece created.

katvanduinen.com 73

CUTTING

A master craftsman is tasked with the

scrupulous role of cutting a skin according

to a style’s pattern. Great skill and years of

experience are required to place the puzzle

parts of a pattern onto a hide, ensuring

only the unblemished areas of the skin

are utilised. For larger styles where more

than one hide is required, the craftsman

undertakes the even more exacting task of

matching two different skins to produce a

single, unified piece. The product’s lining

is also cut and accurately matched to each

corresponding external leather section.

SKIVING

The inner layer of genuine leather,

especially ostrich, can have a fluffy, soft

texture that sheds easily. The back of

leather sections must therefore be skived

(scraped) before they can be attached to

their lining – a laborious process completed

by hand so the craftsman can intuit the

depth and pressure to be applied in order

to avoid skiving the skin too thinly.

EMBOSSING

Sections of leather are cut for embossing,

placed under a heated stamp and gently

pressed by hand. The embossing paper

is carefully peeled away to reveal the

pearlescent shapes created, and

embossed pieces are set aside to cool.

AFFIXING THE LINING &

INTERNAL FEATURES

Details such as locks, clasps and external

metallic logo plates are applied and secured

between the lining and external skin.

The lining is glued to each corresponding

section of leather, ready for assembly.

At this stage, any features on the inside

of a style must be constructed, including

affixing embossed leather sections, zips

and pouches, and adding hardware like our

signature metallic Africa symbol, which is

hammered into place by hand.

katvanduinen.com 75

katvanduinen.com 77

STAINING

The edges of every section of a piece are

sealed by hand with a stain painted onto the

rims and corners of the leather. This first layer is

sanded back and the process repeated until a

strong, smooth, incredibly fine edge is formed.

ASSEMBLY

Each section is beautifully sewn together to

assemble a piece. Handles are connected,

piping added, gussets joined, and the sublime

architecture of the style takes shape.

FINAL TOUCHES

The Kat van Duinen swingtag is gently attached,

and the leather and metallic hardware are

carefully polished, ready for its new owner.

ONLY THE BEST MATERIALS

Derived from and inspired by nature, Kat van Duinen accessories are crafted from

genuine leather and exotic skins.

1 Ostrich LeatherThe striking raised points that give ostrich leather its unique texture are the easiest way to identify the skin from its exotic counterparts. The delicate bumps – covering only a third of the whole hide – are the quill follicles and form the ‘crown’ of the skin. For some styles you have the option to choose between the prestigious Full Quill (quill follicles cover entire piece) and Half Quill (a blend of skin and quills presents a striking pattern). It is this rich, raised texture, the skin’s incredible durability, as well as the intricate process of producing this skin, which make ostrich leather luxurious.

2 Python SkinAlluring, provocative: there is something undeniably seductive about snakeskin. Striking yet sophisticated, each skin offers its own unique motif of scales to give an elegant, iconic finish. Deriving its luxury status from the expertise required to rear pythons, its lightweight, long-lasting nature, the rarity of sizeable, unblemished hides and the manufacturing and tanning skill required, python skin has come to symbolise fabulously decadent style. Kat van Duinen uses Burmese Python, one of the largest snake species in the world.

3 Crocodile LeatherThe intricate grooves and scales of crocodile skin are one of nature’s most breathtaking patterns – a rich, tactile texture. The soft, elaborate area of the belly is most covetable and is, of course, the primary section of hide utilised by Kat van Duinen. Kat van Duinen works with Nile crocodile, native to sub-Saharan Africa. Breeding and rearing crocodiles is complicated and costly, and the production process is done by hand to preserve quality. Add in the durability of the skin and its exquisite beauty, and you can appreciate why crocodile leather holds such value and desirability.On some styles, two finishes are available: Crocodile Safari and Crocodile Classic.

KAT VAN DUINEN SOURCES AAA-GRADE LEATHER ONLY FROM AUTHORISED FARMS WHERE BREEDERS ARE CITES-COMPLIANT, ENSURING ETHICAL CONDITIONS AND SUSTAINABLE PRACTICE. KAT VAN DUINEN IS PROUD TO SUPPORT THE HUMANE PRODUCTION OF EXOTIC LEATHER, WHICH FORMS AN INVALUABLE PART OF SOUTH AFRICA’S ECONOMY.

4 Napa LeatherPerhaps the most recognisable type of hide in the manufacturing of leather goods, Napa is typically derived from calf or lamb and is noticeably soft and flexible. Since farming for Napa leather is considerably less complicated than that of exotics, Napa is a cost-effective option while still feeling premium and luxurious.

Our LiningsAll accessories are lined with goat’s suede unless otherwise stated. Some styles can be lined with 100% cotton, African-print textile. This printed fabric can be selected once your order has been confirmed.

What Is CITES?CITES is an international treaty drawn up to protect wildlife against over-exploitation, as well as to safeguard endangered species. CITES certification is legally required to export and import certain species of animals, including python and crocodile. This process involves verifying the source of origin of hides and ensuring wild populations remain protected. Kat van Duinen complies with CITES regulations wholeheartedly.

On some styles, two finishes are available: Crocodile Safari and Crocodile Classic. Crocodile Safari has a matte appearance and is softer and more pliable. Crocodile Classic is lacquered with a gloss to give a high-shine effect, making it more rigid. Due to this rigidity, some styles cannot be created in Crocodile Classic.
