It needs even more starts.

We looked at a huge number of desk pads. Yes, this was more expensive than most.”: but it’s quality hugely surpassed all leather. All others described how they rolled the pad and how it would level out over time. Not this one. It’s the only one that shipped flat to protect it. It is impossible to find anything less than ideal. It’s expensive but it’s a once in a lifetime bit of perfection. Thank you so much. Craig

Desk looks proper now

I picked up the desk pad for my home office mostly for looks. Didn’t expect to care that much, but it really does make the desk feel cleaner and more finished. The leather feels nice under my hands too.

Très bien réalisé

Un sous main surprenant dans sa finition et sa structure. Il y a longtemps que je cherchais un sous main rigide en cuir et je peux dire que je ne suis pas déçu d'avoir attendu de tomber sur le bon. Je le recommande fortement.

Good quality

This is exactly what I was looking for. It’s stiff and thick enough to protect the table underneath. The leather is nice. It arrived in a nice format.

Nicest piece of leather I have owned. Looks great on the desk, premium in every way.

Don’t be tempted by cheaper desk mats. There are many, and they all look it. This is a product you can enjoy all your life.

Quality craftsmanship!

I purchased the leather valet tray and I couldn’t be more satisfied! I did worry a bit about ordering overseas and was shocked how quickly my order arrived. Aside from that, the leather is absolutely beautiful and the craftsmanship unparalleled. I can definitely see myself making another purchase from Von Baer.

Love the quality of their products. Recently I purchase the catch all, and it is head and shoulders better than the other ones on the market. There are few that compare. If you like quality, you’ll love Von Baer.

Helps us keep things tidy

As much as I love my husband... the inability to keep our home tidy is his one major struggle. This also means he ends up looking for everyting in random places and that falls back on me. Thankfully, this tray has made it a tad bit easier to keep things tidy. We both toss our keys in after work, phones and stuff go in, even my earrings. He misplaces stuff less often now, that's for sure.

Got this as a gift for my bf. He says it’s cool, and he uses it every day. I think it looks fancy on his dresser, but he did mention it could be a bit bigger. Still, he likes it, so I’m happy with it.
