Skin in the Game -The Oris x Cervo Volante collaboration begins with three Big Crown Pointer Date watches. Each has a gradient dial inspired by Alpine hues and a strap made of sustainable deer leather. They come with a pouch and a card holder made of the same material. But theyre not limited, and nor is this a one-time deal.
In 2017, friends Kadri Vunder Fontana, a biotechnology engineer and experienced businesswoman, and Conny Thiel-Egenter, a biologist specialising in nature protection and wildlife and habitat management, founded Cervo Volante. Their vision was to take the waste, specifically deer skins, and transform them into beautiful, hard-wearing and ultimately sustainable footwear and accessories. Their business has grown quickly. Upon learning of Oriss Change for the Better campaign, Cervo Volante approached Oristo ask about collaborating on a sustainable deer leather strap project. The answer was an immediate yes.
Cervo Volantes hand-crafted products, low-impact methods and huge vision have brought a great deal of joy. Not only are their leather shoes and accessories beautiful, they also tell stories in a way typical mass-produced equivalents never could.
For example, they keep imperfections that occur during the life of a deer in their skins, where many companies would discard them. Their skins are never the product of farming, and they never require chemicals or fertilizers. And if the skins werent used in this way, theyd simply be burned. Cervo Volante has also employed Switzerlands last two remaining tanneries, both of which use 100% vegetable tanning processes.
