Rust and blockchain set leathergoods brand apart
25/02/2022
The leather in the Cristiano Torricelli collection is decorated using a process called CTRust, which uses oxidized and neutralised rust, applied manually with an airbrush and brush.
Every item is customised; a tool allows customers to select options through the website.
The materials have non-fungible token (NFT) tags that are activated by a smartphone and connect to the company’s website, where the technical specifications of the item can be viewed.
Designer Cristiano Torricelli said: “My new collection, made up of leather jackets and bags, uses innovative workings, with the most modern digital technologies and is very focused on craftsmanship.”
Cristiano Torricelli Collection is a brand licensed to the start-up Do Quality, based in San Benedetto del Tronto.
