Part of our new Heritage Leather collection - we now have in stock speciality alum tanned white/cream bandsman leather typically used for re-enactment (Napoleonic, English/American civil war etc.) at bargain prices.

Authentic white/cream alum tannage, heritage UK leather with a buffed and fluffed surface.   These leathers all come from UK farm stock, and have been tanned in England using traditional processes, in this case with alum salts to give their characteristic colour.  The pieces are not pristine, there will be some shadowing in a few places which can be whitened/coloured away.

They can be coloured by using a dilute solution of water based dyes and stains.

The weight is a little varied between 1.8mm up to 3.0mm

A3 size 42cmx29.5cm (16.5"x11.75") in two thicknesses

Larger bends approx around 10-11 sq ft, generally length 48-54"

USES: straps, frogged belts, cartridge pouches, satchels, work belts, weightlifting belts, back supports, luggage straps, furniture, placemats and coasters. The snuffed surface makes it ideal for giving a good grip and is used for gymnast or rehabilitation equipment.

They are part of our GUEST LEATHER from the Old Claytons Tannery at Chesterfield that means we won't be able to get more once they are sold.
