DRISH specializes in making fine grain buff calf, cow calf and cow upper leathers in grains, suedes and nubucks. The leather used is mostly from skins of fallen animals, that is animals that have died a natural death. A big strength of the company is its ability to procure the best raw material available in the country. Being located in northern India, which is the source of buff calf and cow-calf skins, has contributed to the company's ability to make international class leathers. This ability is further enhanced by the fact that all raw purchase is done under the personal attention of one of the directors of the company. Heavier leathers are imported from Europe.Our brand Chandi is the largest selling brand in buffalo calf in the world.
