Editions & Allocation

Finite by material, not by marketing.

A MBALI edition is limited by the hides in the register, not by a number chosen for effect. When the hides that suit a silhouette are spoken for, that silhouette closes until the next are entered.

How allocation works

  1. 01

    You configure a piece and send your request. No account is needed to configure; you sign in only to reserve.

  2. 02

    We confirm in writing which registered hide your piece would be cut from, the measured specification and the dispatch window.

  3. 03

    A deposit of 50% confirms the allocation and opens the bench. Ten to sixteen weeks from confirmation.

We do not publish an annual production cap. Editions are governed by the register, and a number will only appear here once it can be evidenced piece by piece.

Standing is confirmed against the register at the time of enquiry. Where a hide is already spoken for, we will tell you before you pay anything.
