Uniqueness and attention to details are not the only reasons why many people tend to choose handmade leather accessories to mass products. Curious enough but handcrafted pieces are often chosen unconsciously. Because it’s not only about material things, it’s also about warmth and connection between the master and the person who gets hold of the thing he made. Handcrafted accessories have this special charm, they are really very texture and … sort of intimate as they always preserve that mood and attitude the master imbued them with. You take the handcrafted piece in your hands guessing what the person was thinking about when he was monotonously and elaborately making this thing… 

Edging, cutting, groove, grinding, polishing, sewing – handcrafted goods are highly personal to every minor detail. This is why such an accessory is either expensive or given as a gift. Not something in between. 

Material aspects are certainly important as well. Hand stitching is always better than machine sewing. Marc Petite, sticking to old artisan traditions, gives preference to the saddle stitch technique which is still used by the most prestigious fashion brands that share the same philosophy. Saddle stitch or “Le Point Sellier” as called on its native French land is assumed to be indestructible and incredibly durable, this is why we mastered this technique to offer you the best. 

In Marc Petite you can communicate with artisans directly and directly participate in creation of a special design. It does not work with mass production. 

Handcrafted goods have a longer warranty period and most of them age beautifully! We like the concept promoted by the Fashion Revolution movement as it truly matters who makes things for you. Marc Petite appreciates the authentic beauty and true value of handmade fashion items and most of our clients do share this view. Keeping up with new trends is not so important to us. Marc Petite stands for slow fashion, sustainability and great design.

Vegetable tanning is not something new: this eco-friendly method of leather treatment has been around for centuries. It is based on the craftsmanship and careful use of traditional techniques. Vegetable tanning makes gives leather a distinct appearance and unmatched durability. Used for years, vegetable tanned leather goods develop a patina that resists aggressive impacts of the environment even better and makes the accessory even more beautiful and unique. Vegetable tanning is based on organic materials and natural tannins derived from barks, leaves, branches of trees and different plants. These colors are gorgeously rich and deep – absolutely irresistible browns, reds, beiges and yellows, just like the dream autumn landscape!
