Characristics of Leather: Vegtable Tanned Cowhide
Tip 1:
Vegetable Tanned Leather
- Definition: Vegetable tanned leather is the top-grain leather tanned with vegetable tanning agents extracted from plants, such as tannic acid solutions, plant polyphenols and other polyphenolic compounds. It is generally cowhide, also known as tannin leather or vegetable tanned leather.
Characteristics
- Environmentally friendly and healthy: Using natural vegetable tanning agents, it does not contain substances harmful to the human body, and can come into direct contact with the skin, exuding a natural plant aroma.
- Texture properties: The leather fiber tissue is compact, with small extensibility, good moldability, a plump and elastic surface, no greasy feeling, and a glossy grain surface and suede surface.
- Color change: The color ranges from the original light pinkish flesh color to light brown. During use, it will gradually darken due to absorbing sunlight, human body oils, etc., and the leather surface will become more gentle and glossy.
- Strong water absorption: It is easy to soften after absorbing water, and has high plasticity, which is very suitable for carving and leather molding. However, for this reason, it is easy to leave water stains, and the color may darken after contact with water and it is difficult to restore the original state.
