DUTCH GILDED LEATHER — FIVE SENSES 1640
A centuries-old craft, transformed into wearable art
For REVUSD, master craftsman Sebastiaan van Soest created gilded-leather panels using Five Senses, a historic Dutch pattern from 1640, depicting touch, sight, sound, taste and smell woven into vines, flowers and fruit.
Each panel is made entirely by hand through traditional tooling and pure silver-leaf gilding. Crafting a single panel takes around 1.5 weeks, with the colouring process alone requiring six hours of dedicated manual work.
REVUSD translates this heritage into contemporary wearable pieces.

Sustainability
For us, sustainability isn’t a statement, it’s how we work.
We don’t produce more. We begin with what already exists.
Our pieces are made from unused premium leather, sourced from European luxury production. Materials created to the highest standards, yet never used.
We give them a life.
Meaning.
A place to be carried.
How we create
All REVUSD pieces are designed in-house at the House of REVUSD.
Here, we work directly with the material, exploring form, proportion and new ideas.
Some pieces are created within the House itself. Others are crafted in small volumes at a trusted atelier in Istanbul, known for its craftsmanship and experience with premium leather.
By keeping development close to the material, and production small and intentional, the integrity of each piece is preserved.
Longevity is our first responsibility.
