Leather Today
Leather is one of the worlds most adaptable and pleasing materials. It offers unsurpassed satisfaction and endurance in a variety of impressive finishes, textures and colors. When most people see leather, their first reaction is to touch it. The way leather feels is called its hand. In general, the softer the hand, the higher the cost. Leather was created to cover. It is a product specifically designed by nature to cover the bodies of animals. Leather has been with us for thousands of years and will be available for many more years to come. It has a unique capacity to endure the elements and hence has the ability to last where other materials would just fail. The information on the following pages details the origins of leather, the importance of raw material and also how leather is transformed from the raw hide or pelt, to the tanned and finished leather skin. |
