Throwback to my leather working days. 

If I could find another supplier of vegetable tanned leather, I might pick this up again. I enjoy making handbags - there are no sizing issues like there are with clothing

Hey! Thank you. It’s a natural treatment process using vegetable tannins. So, no harsh chemicals involved in treating or dying the leather. It’s the most environmentally friendly method of producing leather

of course! that’s so interesting, is it the original method that was used for leather making, or is it a recent development to avoid chemicals?

I think it’s the method that’s been used since leather became a thing :) a very old process

oh that’s so interesting!!!! thank you!!!!!
