Old Leather

Ok so here it is. I used the Alcohol 50/50 with water and about a teaspoon of White Vinegar. I submerged the leather in water then using a med bristol scrub brush applied the the solution. Let dry overnight after cleaning and cased the leather and this is the result. I used Black dye cause there were still a few minor imperfections.

looks good to me, it's the "imperfections" in leather that make it so good to work with, and to own, if you want perfect, use plastic, You will always be your own worst critic, as you know the problems that particular piece of leather had, your customer doesn't know how you have had to beat that mold into submission, and doesn't care, like I said, it looks a fine bit of leatherwork to me, and I'm sure it will to him/her
