This leather is a "tannery choice," meaning the hides have been carefully selected and therefore have very few defects. As a reminder, defect-free leather does not exist. Vegetable-tanned leather is quality leather that does not hide the animal's life marks and develops a patina over time. With this type of leather, you need to strategically place your design patterns before cutting.
