tops Report post Posted February 25, 2016 "Our tannery is the family business, more than thirty years we supply row material for other tanneries and made to order highest quality shell cordovan for limited shoe makers. Times change, and today we decided to enter the wide markets with famous shell cordovan, offering a product based on a wealth of experience and professionalism earned two generations of tanners». Our colors are: classic black, unique whiskey, elegant brown, french burgundy, race green and navy blue. The average size of each shell is 0,20 - 0,22 square meter or 2,5 square feet. The average thickness is 1,5 - 1,6 mm or 4 oz. We can make it less or more upon request. Price is USD65 for 1 square foot ex tannery. Shipping to US for 1-5 shells is USD50 (partly paid by us). We accept either PayPal or bank transfer payment. There is no minimum order, so you can buy al least one shell to try it out and come back for more. Will be glad to answer your questions or get inquiry either here in PM, or hello at horsecordovan com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thor Report post Posted February 26, 2016 Tops, you can insert the active link here. http://www.horsecordovan.com/ Since members here aren't only from the US, but from all around the world it would be interesting to know what your shipping charges are for shipments within Europe as well as to other regions in the world such as Australia or African countries even.

Im on duty for few months only, so it is not enough time to get photos of ready products from costumers. also most of them prefer to hide the source of cordovan, so each time I have to ask permission even to make the repost. I understand your mistrusting, please check our IG instagram.com/shellcordovan - there you can find feedbacks and some costumers experience. Thank you very much, I appreciate your attention!
