CF Stead Exotics: Kudu and Unicorn (yes Unicorn)

[nstarleather]

Hi Folks bought out a bootmaker and have some hides to sell all of these are usually $10+ per foot and I'm asking $5 per foot plus shipping (from SC). All of these hides are somewhat small so full sides only ( may have a few loose pieces of Kudu but not promises). All of these have a somewhat soft/medium temper. For some reason I don't have access to messages on the site so please email: nstarleather@shtc.net

First Hides are CF Steads "Unicorn" tannage, but fear not, no mystical animals were killed in the making of this leather (hopefully).

This tannage is a very soft tempered leather made with Scandinavian Moos or Elk (apparently which is a translation thing I have yet to figure out).

More info on the leather here and here.

The color is "Polo Brown" it gauge at 3-4oz (1.2mm-1.6mm)

 

Next up is CF Stead Waxy Kudu (African Antelope). More info here: http://www.cfstead.com/antelope-elk-deer/waxed-kudu/

 These hides have lots of character natural scratches and scars.

Gauges at 4-5oz I have a few colors: Gaucho, Tumeric, Cloud (limited) and Spruce:

Some interesting looking leather there!  If I wasn't so far away and across borders, I'd likely have to grab some of your sales, even though I have enough in my closet to keep me busy for quite some time.  Hard to turn down nice leather!

Got my unicorn side - it's exactly at described, very supple and nice. Well worth the price.
