WHY CHOOSE A BUFFALO SINGLE BUTT?
A single butt is cut from the rear section of the hide. This area is commonly selected for leatherworking because it provides useful sections of relatively consistent leather.
Chocolate Brown Buffalo Leather is particularly suited to projects where a substantial thickness and distinctive appearance are desirable.
The chrome-tanned construction provides a practical alternative to vegetable-tanned leather for customers seeking a finished brown leather rather than a natural leather requiring dyeing.
NATURAL LEATHER CHARACTERISTICS
As genuine leather is a natural material, individual pieces may display variations in grain, colour, texture and markings.
These characteristics contribute to the individual appearance of handmade leather goods.
