Creating Le 10 Colonne meant choosing the exceptional. From the outset, our ambition was clear: to design a card holder entirely made in France, respecting the finest craftsmanship.
Exceptional leathers, sourced from the finest French tanneries.
We have selected the most prestigious tanneries, often awarded the EPV (Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant) label, which supply the most iconic luxury leather goods brands. These rare leathers, prized for their impeccable quality, are produced in limited quantities—a rarity that demands patience, rigor, and exacting standards.
Each hide is chosen with meticulous care. If we cannot find the finest leathers, we prefer not to produce them. This philosophy makes each Le 10 Colonne a unique piece, crafted in small batches, according to the available leathers and the color harmonies they inspire.
A noble material, crafted to last.
The exterior of Le 10 Colonne is made of Novonappa or Nappa Calf, sourced from the Haas tannery (EPV) in Strasbourg. These leathers undergo a double tanning process and are deeply nourished, guaranteeing remarkable durability and a natural patina that reveals the unique character of your card holder.
We also work with goatskin leather from the Alran tannery (EPV), in Mazamet in the Tarn region — a supple and refined leather, used for exteriors or certain interiors, depending on the series. It is then "split," that is to say, thinned, to perfectly follow the lines of the product.
Finally, for the most delicate interiors, we select the dipped lambskin from the Bodin-Joyeux tannery (EPV), renowned for its silky feel and incomparable fineness.
A deliberately confidential production
Our quest for perfection and our keen sense of aesthetics impose strict constraints: Le 10 Colonne can only exist through excellence. This is why our series are limited, our lead times sometimes long—but every piece delivered lives up to your expectations. Thank you for your trust and patience. The success of Le 10 Colonne
is also yours.
