Unleash your creativity with a raw piece of black horsebutt leather, ideal for your next handmade crafting project. This premium cut is dyed using the traditional tea-core technique, where black dye coats a natural brown base. As your finished creations age and wear down, the dark surface slowly reveals the warm tea-colored undertones beneath, giving your gear a vintage character over time.
Horsebutt is celebrated among leatherworkers for its dense structure and distinctive aging potential. Craft enthusiasts in Japan often seek out tea-core dyed hides to make custom wallets, watch straps, and small goods that develop a personal patina through daily use.
This is a new, unused hide offering roughly 85 deci of material, with a versatile thickness of around 1.8mm and a normal-to-soft temper. As a natural piece of material, it shows some visible uneven wrinkles near the center area.
