About our leather

The leather we use is between 1.3 and 3 mm thick. Some leather is coloured by dyeing and others by a coating on the top surface.

Different coloured leather reacts differently when hit by the laser: some colours will absorb the beam and are easier to engrave; others partly reflect the beam and need more power and a lower speed to engrave well.

We also use natural vegetable-tanned leather, which is tanned using plant-based tannins rather than synthetic chemicals. This type of leather has a light, natural finish that darkens beautifully with age and develops a unique patina through handling and outdoor use. Because it contains no surface coatings, it engraves exceptionally well: the laser produces crisp, dark markings with strong contrast, and the material also takes stamped designs deeply and cleanly when moistened. This leather is the only one we recommend for stamping and pyrography.

Natural variation

Leather is a natural product, so marks and imperfections may be found — we always try to cut around these. There may also be variation in colour between hides of the same colour. We cannot guarantee that leather colours or thickness will exactly match between orders.

Don’t forget: the darker the leather, the less the burnt design will stand out.

Colours we aim to keep in stock

Brown, Light Brown, Blue, Green, Red, White and Yellow. All other colours are subject to availability.

Bonded Leather

We offer Bonded Leather in a number of colours. Bonded Leather (also called reconstituted or blended leather) comes from animal hide but is not 100% hide. It’s made by shredding leather scraps and fibres to form a pulp, which is then meshed between a fibre cloth and a polyurethane coating.

Bonded leather can be regarded as environmentally friendly in that it uses leftovers and doesn’t involve additional farming, thereby reducing landfill. The agent used to bind the fibres together is latex, a natural product.

How we cut our leather

We use steel cutting dies with a clicker press which applies 8 tonnes of pressure. This ensures the leather shapes are cut out very cleanly.
