RHIMPEE COLLECTION

Introducing the Rhimpee Collection, inspired by the rich history of Riempie furniture originating in South Africa. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, each piece in this collection embodies the traditional craftsmanship and cultural heritage of Riempie chairs used by early settlers in the 19th century.

Utilising the technique of riempies, which involves interlacing strips of rawhide or worked leather hide, the Rhimpee Collection offers lightweight and durable furniture solutions for modern living spaces. Originally created as a practical solution to the challenges posed by the harsh South African climate, riempie weaving provided a strong and flexible seating surface that withstood extreme conditions.

The Rhimpee Collection pays homage to this heritage while incorporating contemporary design elements to suit today's interiors. From accent chairs to dining chairs benches, each piece in this collection exudes timeless elegance and showcases the beauty of traditional craftsmanship.

Experience the enduring natural beauty and durability of Riempie-inspired furniture with our Rhimpee Collection, where heritage meets modern design.

Leather is sensitive to sunlight, heat, moisture, and oils, which can cause fading, staining, or cracking. Keep away from direct sun and heat sources, and rotate cushions for even wear.

Dust with a soft cloth, blot spills immediately, and use only leather-safe cleaners or conditioners as recommended.

Avoid soaking, scrubbing, harsh chemicals, or sharp objects.

Leather is a product of nature, imbued with its own history and life, resulting in distinct and individual characteristics. Each piece will inevitably display unique signs of its origin, making every hide one of a kind.

Crafted from premium natural leather, unlike synthetic alternatives, this leather retains its organic character, ensuring a timeless and luxurious appeal. With its soft, supple texture,it feels smooth and inviting to the touch, while its breathable nature allows it to adjust to body temperature for enhanced comfort.

Over time, this leather develops a rich patina, deepening in character and beauty with use. No two pieces are ever the same, as each hide showcases unique variations in grain, tone, and texture. These natural distinctions add authenticity, ensuring that every piece reflects genuine craftsmanship.

As a product of nature, leather naturally displays individual characteristics such as subtle colour variations, stretch marks, scars, and fine grain patterns. These markings are not imperfections but rather inherent features that celebrate the leather’s organic beauty.

We embrace these unique qualities, as they contribute to the authenticity and timeless appeal of each piece. With its exceptional durability and character, this leather is a true investment in quality and craftsmanship.
