The leather you see here is one PREMIUM GRADE, ABSOLUTELY silky, buttery soft, supple, light weight lambskin hide in A GORGEOUS BRIGHT ORANGE LAMÉ, PRINTED WITH A PYTHON PATTERN. WHAT WE MEAN TO SAY IS THAT IT REALLY SHIMMERS AND DANCES IN THE LIGHT IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL AND SO SOFT, YOU WON'T BELIEVE IT. IT'S PYTHON WITH AN EXTRA KICK. THIS IS A RICH, SATURATED, VIBRANT COLOR AND ONE WE DON'T COME ACROSS OFTEN. WAIT TIL YOU FEEL THIS STUFF. It feels soooo good to the touch, you won't want to ever take your hands off of it.
Please see the close up shot below for the exquisite detail in these hides.
It's ideal for scrapbooking, costumes, clothing, trim, applique, quilting, cuffs and collars for show clothes, your imagination's the limit. It's soft, machine sewable, easy to work. It runs 1 1/2-2 oz.'s in thickness and totals approx. 5 sq. ft.
The total square footage of a hide is obtained by a scan of the leather at the tannery. It refers to the total area of leather in a hide. For instance, a hide that measures 24” X 36”( a typical lambskin) = 864”÷ 144”(12” X 12”) = 6 sq.ft. A 6 sq.ft. hide does NOT mean the hide is 6 ft. long. Again, it is the total AREA of a hide.
Welcome to Leatherwise
For All Your Leather Needs
We have been craftsmen, manufacturers and retail store owners in the leather business for over 25 years.
Wait until you see all the goodies we have for you on our eBay auctions!
If it's one thing we've learned from owning a leathercraft store, it's that many people who need leather are only looking for a few square feet in a variety of colors, which is difficult to come by. Others are looking for whole hides.
We offer both.
If you look at all of our auctions, you'll see our amazing variety of leathers, many of them from the fashion industry (which means really soft and really colorful).
All of our leathers are photographed on a one-square-foot grid background, so you can easily see how many sq. ft. you are getting. These leathers are very machine sewable and are ideal for so many uses, including gloves, pillows, garments, doll clothes, bags, purses, trim, quilts, etc.
All of the leathers in our auctions start off at about $1 per sq. ft., which, for these wonderful leathers in fashion colors, is an incredible bargain!Ask anyone in the leather business.
If you've never tried leather for your projects, our leathers will make you realize what you've been missing.
