This vegetable-tanned calf leather is distinguished by its natural elegance, the traditional, eco-friendly tanning process, and a pleasant thickness of 0.9–1.0 mm. With its fine, even surface it provides excellent conditions for the production of exclusive bindings and the restoration of valuable leather volumes. Thanks to its supple structure it can be easily processed, cut, and embossed, making it especially versatile in the bookbinding trade.
