LUJADO

The edge polishing technique, known as lujado in Spanish, is a meticulous artisanal process used to refine and enhance the edges of leather pieces.

This technique involves carefully sanding, smoothing, and sealing the edges to achieve a flawless, durable, and aesthetically pleasing finish.The process begins by shaping and sanding the raw edges to ensure uniformity. Then, a special burnishing agent or natural wax is applied to seal the leather fibers, followed by polishing with precision tools to create a sleek, smooth, and slightly glossy effect.

This enhances the durability, elegance, and comfort of the piece while preventing fraying or wear over time. At MCORTÉS, we have applied this traditional technique to all our models, ensuring that each creation meets the highest standards of craftsmanship and luxury.

The result is a collection of exquisitely finished leather goods that embody both timeless sophistication and exceptional quality.
