CONT

Dans le territoire de Pise est encore en usage le tannage végétal, qui utilise exclusivement des substances extraites du bois. C'est la méthode la plus ancienne, et la technologie n'a pas substantiellement transformé les procédés [...] le tannage végétal est apprécié parce qu'il conserve à la peau son naturel, ses nervures et sa chaleur d'origine.
