In the heart of Manufacture Jean Rousseau\u2019s tannery, we carefully prepare materials to be transformed into watch straps, wallets, and other leather accessories. The Manufacture selects its hides and skins from approved suppliers who uphold the ethics and values of the company. Once received, each skin is crafted and finished by our experts. Maison Jean Rousseau develops its own dyes and finishes and offers bespoke alligator leather in more than 300 colors. All skins are inspected and tested in our laboratory certified by CTC Lyon to ensure their durability over time. Once tested and inspected, each skin is cut according to a precise pattern developed by the technical office and using internally manufactured tools. The art of cutting is essential to enhance the natural pattern of each material and to optimize waste. From perfect cutting to quality control, the keen eye and expertise of our teams are crucial here.<\/p>\n

Hole-punching, assembly, hand-stitching – each stage in the creation of a watch strap contributes to its final beauty and enhances the quality of a unique timepiece. Over time, Maison Jean Rousseau has expanded its expertise to include a variety of other leather goods produced for their clientele of connoisseurs and lovers of luxury items.<\/p>\n
