Is this real leather or synthetic?

It is genuine sheep and cow skin leather with an ostrich-print grain, not a synthetic material.

Will I get one hide or two?

Either is possible. The lot totals 7 to 10 square feet and may come as one large hide or two smaller ones.

Why are there marks and holes?

These are natural features of real hides. The square footage runs closer to 10 to leave room to cut around them.

Will the color match the image?

Not always. Color shades can vary from hide to hide, so treat the image as a guide.

What can I make with it?

It suits crafts, bags, wallets, trims, decoration and soft leather garments and accessories.

Is the thickness consistent?

No. Larger hides may be thicker, and smaller skins tend to be softer, so thickness varies.
