Leather being a product of nature that is
processed into a finished item
as opposed to a manufactured product, there are certain things that
make ordering leather unique.
The size, shape and condition of finished leather is somewhat
dependant
upon the age and condition of the animal at the time of
processing.
Leather
Leather is the tanned or dressed skin of an animal.
Possessing qualities superior to any man made material.
Chrome Tanned:
Principal Method of tanning leather with a mineral agent.
Chrome tanning is achieved using one or more salts of metal
chromium,
which produces a soft and flexible leather ideal for use in
garments, upholstery, shoe tops etc.
Finished Leather:
Leather with all processing completed.
These processes can include the application of a stamped or
corrective grain,
color and a final coating of any protective finish.
Flesh Side of Leather:
Under part or back of leather that was next to the meat of flesh of
the animal.
Grain Side of Leather
Epidermis or outer layer of animal skins.
Also refers to the outer or hair side of the skin that has been
split into 2 or more thickness'
Full Grain is leather just as it is when removed from the animal,
with only the hair removed.
Ounce

of leather.
An ounce is of equal value to both 1/64 inch and 0.4 mm
thickness.

or running the surface of leather on an emery wheel
to separate the fibers in order to produce the nap or fuzz found on
Suede leather.
