How to choose the right leather and why some beginning leather craftsmen have questions about the quality of certain leathers.
We decided to create a detailed video for you with the most frequently asked questions about leather quality.
In today's world, with so many artificial leathers on the market, with improved genuine leather production technologies and new processing and finishing options, with the use of polyurethane coatings in finishing, it can be difficult for a beginning leather craftsman to understand the quality of a product and what is normal and what is just a salesperson's gimmick.
In this video, we discussed why leather can look as if it were glued together from several pieces, what a preserved grain and a true papillary layer look like.
We discussed the "mesh" on the flesh side of genuine leather, why it appears, and whether it is a fabric. We also explained the technology of vacuum drying genuine leather and the properties it acquires after vacuum drying.
We clearly demonstrated what leather with a polyurethane coating looks like, the properties leather acquires thanks to polyurethane coatings, and how this can be used in your products.
Friends, we always approve every piece of leather before shipping. During the approval process, you will be able to see the organoleptic properties of the leather, understand its density, assess the working area and any defects, and ask all your questions regarding the appearance, processing, finishing, and properties of the leather.
