Cowhide
Cowhide is genuine leather that has been processed to make it thin enough for your turned edge application. It is sold by the side. The sides average approximately 20 square feet per side. There are currently 11 colours and finishes to choose from. We do not sheet the cowhide since there is always a waste factor because of the shape of the side.
Genuine cowhide leather treated for turned edge(thinner), chrome tanned and re-tanned with a vegetable extract. The leather is dyed with environmentally safe dyes then pigment finished and finally it is sprayed with a water based resin top coat.
