ABOUT THE LEATHER: This is a marigold yellow sheepskin leather full hide, averaging 4 to 6+ square feet, with a crackle grain and soft temper. Imported from Italy, this hide has a semi-sheen finish and is chrome tanned. The crackle grain refers to the intentional surface texture that mimics natural wear and aging—featuring a web of fine, vein-like wrinkles and creases that give the leather a vintage, broken-in appearance while maintaining softness and flexibility. This hide is ideal for garment use, liner or smaller leather crafting projects that require a soft hand feel, such as bags, pouches, accessories, or light upholstery. Its unique grain and finish make it visually appealing while still maintaining the integrity and durability expected from quality sheepskin.
Please note: Orders of one to two pieces will be shipped folded. Three or more pieces will be shipped rolled for optimal handling.
Seller’s Note: We highly recommend purchasing 3 or more pieces to benefit from a lower cost per hide and rolled shipping (instead of folded), which helps minimize crease marks on leather and ensures better product and customer satisfaction.
Note: All hides in this listing are Alike. If you are attempting to match an existing color, hide, project or even a leather from another retailer, we recommend not purchasing this hide.
