This full-grain, vegetable-tanned buffalo hide comes from a small tannery near Chennai, Tamil Nadu. Classified as an economy/factory category leather, it is stiffer and less refined than the premium hides we usually offer. For this reason, we will not be restocking it once current stocks are sold. That said, it remains a solid option for projects where firmness and structure are preferred, and it is available in multiple colors to suit different design needs. Please review carefully to ensure it fits your project requirements.
Applications:
Wallets and cardholders
Key fobs, watch straps, and other small accessories
Moulded leather goods such as bicycle seats
Projects requiring high firmness.
Features:
Multiple Colour Options – Available in multiple colour options such as Tan, Dark Tan, Brown, Blue and Green.
Full-Grain Vegetable Tanned – Traditional tanning using natural tannins for strength, longevity, and a rich patina that develops with age.
