I love the vibrant colours of  Fendi’s Famous Selleria leather. The ultra buttery soft Selleria leather texture is derived through a special treatment process using dedicated hand made artisanal craftsmanship at Fendi artisan workshop.

Fendi craftsman Stefanus and Donna Ong worked together in tandem at FENDI Takashimaya Shopping Centre Boutique to create a conceptual art piece with Italian and Peranakan influence using Fendi’s Famous Selleria leather in different shades starting from FENDI discarded materials. This involves sewing the buttery soft Selleria leather using dedicated hand made artisanal craftsmanship onto the masterpiece.

Fendi Selleria leather in colourful hues are cut into circular, rectangle, hexagon, oval and various shapes and hand sewn stitch by stitch individually on the light brown Fendi Selleria leather shaped like a cow to create colour contrast texture and designs including summer butterflies and flowers of Peranakan influence.
