This is goat suede leather in dark brown, with a velvety surface. The leather is buffed to lift the nap, and it is smooth, even and soft. In certain lighting, the dark brown shows a dark plum purple undertone.
The leather is 1.2 mm (3 oz) thick and has a soft firmness. It is natural leather, so scars and imperfections are part of it. No two pieces are identical, and the piece you receive may differ slightly from the photos.
It comes as a pre-cut sheet, a hide or a side. A pre-cut sheet is a rectangular piece, and you may receive a bigger size. A hide is all the leather from one animal, including the shoulders, butt and belly. A side is half a hide, cut along the backbone. Hides and sides are irregular in shape and are measured in the tannery.
