Explanation of the materials

Metal

Zamak Refers to a family of alloys consisting mainly of zinc and containing aluminum, copper and small amounts of magnesium as alloying metals. They are used for zinc die casting

Stainless steel is a term for alloyed or unalloyed steels with a special degree of purity

Alloy In metallurgy, a macroscopically homogeneous metallic material consisting of at least two elements (components), of which at least one is a metal

Galvanization This coating process is used to produce metallic coatings on substrate bodies.

Brass is a copper alloy with mass fractions of at least 50% copper and up to about 40% zinc.

Inlay(s) is a decoration technique in which different types of wood and other materials are placed on a flat surface in such a way that a flat surface is created

Leather

Cowhide, dyed These leathers come from Europe and are produced exclusively from regional raw materials. Vegetable tanned, barrel dyed, hot air greased

Bare leather These leathers come from southern Germany and are produced exclusively from regional raw materials. Vegetable tanned

Fat leather Combined tanned, barrel-dyed, soft cowhide, oiled raw material from Europe

Buffalo leather Indian water buffalo, combined tanned, semi-aniline

Nubuck leather European cow, combined-tanned and pure aniline dyed in the barrel

Semi-aniline In order to even out the surface colour and structural irregularities, the leather is top-dyed (finished) with pigment colour. This also makes the leather less sensitive. The natural characteristics of the skin are less visible, but remain partially recognizable as an expression of genuine leather.

Aniline leather dyed through and sensitive to water and dirt (a drop of water applied to the surface absorbs and darkens the leather) and has no surface protection at all,

Covered smooth leather finished smooth leather, surface pigmented smooth leather, with a water-repellent color and protective layer on the surface

Others

Resin Synthetic resin (also called synthetic resin) or casting resin

Sheesham wood or Indian rosewood is an Indian plantation wood
