Cognac, Desert Finish, Grade I/II, 31cm -- $217 (First 6 images). Mink, Desert Finish, Grade I/II, 33cm --$ 231 (Last 2 images)

Skins are no longer available for sale

Clearing out a few skins I purchased last year. I am just not able to get to all the leather projects I’ve wanted to do with my work schedule. Please note I only ship within the United States and only accept PayPal. 1. American alligator Chocolate Millennium finish – 34 cm wide x 127 cm long—Grade IV/V – Some sections have been used for other projects but over half of the belly and all of the tail remain. Grade 5 due to some holes in the belly region, would be a great piece for small card cases and wallets/ inlays. $ 175 Shipped CONUS 2. Nile crocodile Forest Green Desert Finish – 34cm wide x 121 cm long—Nile Crocodile Grade I/II—Higher grade, only a few imperfections in belly region. This is a stunning skin! It is a very rich green that’s hard to capture in a photo. $315 3. American alligator Navy Desert Finish – 34 cm wide x 135cm long—Grade I/II--- Higher grade, minimal imperfections in the belly region. The tail shows more character and has a darker dye streak with a few lighter spots (see pictures), but grading by the tannery is done solely on the belly condition. $315 4. American alligator Light Green Nappa Finish- 36cm wide x 95cm long- Grade V—Very few holes on the tail. This one was downgraded due to more scaring on the belly scales. This is a really neat garment grade finish, meaning the skin was treated so that it drapes like fabric. $110—This one has been discounted more due to the presence of scares on the belly (see picture).

No longer for sale thanks!

Price drop: $300 shipped for both.

I've got two glazed American Alligator skins I'm letting go: Green American Alligator Glazed-- Very flexible for a glazed skin, very close to garment grade as it has great drape, 16 inches wide (at belly) x 72 inches long. Thinned at the tannery to 1-1.5mm thick, some holes as shown in pics due to the thinning process. Most holes are in the tail area, and the belly has a small hole around the neck area. Please see pics below Price $340 Pale Green/ Brown American Alligator Glazed-- More like a traditional glazed alligator skin, a bit more stiff than the previous listed skin due to the tanning process. 6.5 inches wide (at widest portion) x 27 inches long. Price: $50 U.S. CONUS SHIPPING ONLY, PAYPAL ONLY ALL SHIPPING COVERED IN PRICE LISTED ABOVE

Vintage custom is on HOLD. The pink cut out will certainly eventually make an interesting clutch purse! :-) I'll be sure to post pics when it's finally complete.

Below I've attached three more pictures of the Vintage Brown Skin with a couple of other pieces for color comparison. The first picture shows the vintage brown next to a special cognac card case and the next shows it next to a clutch purse to be in light pink. The picture including the pink gator skin captures more of the true brown color tone, some of the others show it as more orange than it is because of camera settings. Really trying to clean out some stuff so... FINAL price drop on the Vintage Custom - $170 SHIPPED CONUS

Serpentine Grey skin is SOLD! Vintage Brown is still available at $200 shipped USPS Priority CONUS

Both skins are still available, sorry I can not ship internationally. Paypal only thanks!

Price drop on Brown Vintage custom shown above to $200, that's below the cost I paid for it so get it while it's still available! I'm adding one more vintage custom skin in serpentine grey, size 26 cm wide skin, a small portion of the belly has been used. See below for pics, discounted to $120. I've also included a picture of a card case made using vintage serpentine grey, works great for small leather goods! PM with any questions!

Thanks for the compliment, I use Angelus edge paint for all my gator edge work or chrome leathers. I either get it from fineleatherworking or http://www.turtlefeathers.net/text/angelus/paint.html . As far as how I do finishing it's similar to the method in this link..http://www.watchesbysjx.com/2012/08/how-to-hand-making-watch-strap.html. Thanks! Jason

Here are a few more skins I'm clearing out, see below for details... Matte finished Vintage Kustom American alligator in hand tipped brown - 34cm grade IV/V -- $240 Although it's a grade IV/V there are no holes. The skin has a hand tipped finish and was done as a custom run for George Cleverly shoe company in the UK. I also purchased a serpentine grey version and it's been great for making card cases. As you can see in the picture it has a bit of a shine almost like a glazed skin, but it is a matte finish with a antique finish added by the tannery. Burnt pink American Alligator tail (the darker pink on the right side of the picture) Grade 2/3 -- $45 Shipping via USPS First class/ or priority is free. Will ship only CONUS, thanks! Jason

All skins are sold Thanks!

They range between roughly 1-1.6 mm each, the dark blue skin is a bit thicker. All were well thinned at the tannery.

Updated pictures including the dark blue skin I forgot to post above. Thanks!
