How a Silwart creation is born

Every Silwart creation comes from daily-life and professional life needs is inspired by the environment around us.

An idea takes shape after hours, sometimes after days, of meticulous reflection and research.

There are countless details to consider in crafting an item, and even more when starting to design and sketch. Our models are not created with computer software, but are drawn with pencil and ruler. Every component is defined in minute detail and designed with millimeter precision.

The process begins with designing the item to define the concept of shape, aesthetics, dimensions, components, their positions and proportions, and the internal lining with its details and finishes.

Even the lining needs to be carefully studied and designed, including the placement of internal pockets and any other components necessary to secure the lining to the leather bag.

Next, we select the most suitable type of leather for the project, determining the thickness to be used and its hand-feel—soft, rigid, or semi-rigid.

This is followed by the preliminary drawing of both the overall design and each individual component, including even the smallest details, marking holes, stitches, attachments, alignments, and centering. Everything must be perfect to ensure that all parts fit together precisely.

Then, we create a prototype—the actual item—to test the results of our design. Almost always, the prototype requires adjustments to optimize the outcome. Sometimes the design needs to be shortened or lengthened, proportions adjusted by even a centimeter, handles repositioned, shapes softened, or closures reimagined, all to achieve harmony and perfection.

If significant changes are needed, the model is redrawn, and a new corrected prototype is created. For minor adjustments, the drawing is revised, the final pattern is made, and the sample is produced.

If the sample meets our expectations, we can start creating the product for the customer.

So many stages of preparation and study lie behind the crafting of a leather creation!
