Labatut

Introducing Labatut, a contemporary leather accessories brand imagined and designed between Paris and the South West of France by founder Caroline Benaouda. Drawing inspiration from contemporary aesthetics with a nod to the past, Labatut creates leather goods infused with a strong design sense while obsessively focused on high quality craftsmanship. The label’s on-going quest to offer the best of both luxury and sustainability translates in the uniquely modern stance of using only dead stock leather, salvaged from renowned tanneries. By offering a second life to these precious materials Labatut aims to compliment their singularity. The leather salvage approach allows the brand to act and produce in a sustainable way, without commissioning any additional leather productions and therefore avoiding surplus stock. This process results in small quantities, even one single item produced at times, making each piece singular and unique. Rare objects by essence, the label’s designs aim to stay exceptional pieces throughout time. From the selection of the leather to the color palette, Labatut is defined by impeccable quality, thorough attention to detail and the values of craftsmanship. Every piece is made by hand and by nature, meaning that each item is slightly different with beautiful (im)perfections.
