Museum is similar to Buttero but with a slightly contrasting aniline finish that brings out some subtle tones in the leather. This leather is more firm than a vacchetta leather, this stiffness give a nice rigidity to projects. It is full vegetable tanned and will patina nicely over time.

This is their top grade, it is full grain and come in double shoulders which means no belly and a much higher usable hide. The colors are very nice and rich, it is full aniline meaning dyed with no color correction ensuring the leather has that natural look and feel to it. It is easy to cut and skive. It is some of the most versatile leather we have found. Their beautiful colors will provide near endless options and combinations to mix into your projects.
