Lucien — Hand-Tooled Cowhide Belt
Lucien is a hand-tooled cowhide belt, its front panel genuine hair-on cowhide with hand-tooled leather worked in at the start and end near the buckle, the back panel finished in plain leather. Available in four sizes, Small through XL.
Every Lucien is cut from a single cowhide, so the hide markings across the front panel are entirely its own — a feature of genuine cowhide, never a flaw, and the reason no two belts in this range are ever quite the same.
Dimensions: 3.5 cm
- Leather type: Hairon cowhide
- Width: 3.5 cm
- Weight: 0.2 kg

The Belt
Finished to last
The Edit's belts are cut from genuine leather, finished with hardware chosen to last as long as the leather itself does. A good belt outlives several wardrobes, and that's exactly the idea.
An engraved metal buckle closes the belt with a classic single-prong fastening, hip-sitting and built for everyday wear. The tooling at each end is Lucien's considered detail — hand carving placed exactly where the eye lands near the buckle, rather than left plain.
Aftercare
Keep it looking this good
Leather ages best with a little attention. Keep pieces away from direct heat and prolonged sun, wipe spills promptly with a dry cloth, and condition every few months with a leather-safe balm to stop it drying out. Store stuffed with tissue to hold its shape when not in use.

The craft
Leather that's built to age well
Every piece in the Cuerava edit is chosen for genuine leather and construction that holds up — not fast fashion, not disposable. We pick pieces we’d carry ourselves, then let the leather do the rest: it darkens, softens, and gets better with use.
