Elephant,giraffe,hippo,wildebeest & Spanish Shrunken *fs*

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

I am a beginner Watch strap maker who specializes in the oddities and exotic leather types. The leather gets quite expensive and as any leatherworker knows most leather is only available via full sides, tanned pieces and lot orders. I have here below the leftovers of a few orders and custom jobs as I am trying to limit my losses and send the extras out into the world to become something spectacular.

I have here only CITES approved pieces, actually it is easier to get guns and drugs into the country than illegal or poached hides. The pieces shown here do not have the tag, but I can provide proof that the piece it came from DOES in fact have CITES numbers and registration.

Giraffe and Hippo do not require CITES (they are not a protected species)

Giraffe hides come from diseased/dying, injured or problem animals in the Zimbabwe region of Africa. Zambezi Tanners have exclusive Government contracts for Giraffe tanning. Hippo hides come from "problem" Hippos. Hippos are the most dangerous animal in Africa. They kill more humans annually than all other animals combined.

I will provide the best size estimate I can, included in every photo is a 12 inch ruler so interested persons can judge for themselves.

I will ship all pieces in USPS Tyvek envelopes and a flat $5.00 fee is the shipping price to the buyer. Any moneys needed for shipping

over the $5.00 fee will come out of my pocket. I accept PayPal only.

If any persons are interested in the entire lot, I will sell everything shown for $300.00 + $13.75 shipping.
