10/11oz. V1 Db. Shoulders Vegetable-Tanned Natural Tooling Leather by Sepici
10/11oz. V1 Double Shoulders Vegetable-Tanned Natural Tooling Leather by Sepici
Premium full-grain double shoulders, vegetable-tanned in the Sepici Tannery using traditional plant-based extracts. Natural, undyed leather with firm temper and smooth, consistent grain — perfect for tooling, carving, and heavy-duty leathercraft.
Product Overview
The V1 Double Shoulders represent Sepici’s highest-grade vegetable-tanned tooling leather. Crafted from European steers and young bulls, this natural leather is pit-tanned for several weeks using an antique family recipe composed of oak, chestnut, mimosa, and quebracho tannins.
At 10/11 oz (4.0–4.4 mm), this leather offers superior strength, a tight grain, and smooth consistency — making it the ideal choice for belting, molding, stamping, embossing, and fine leatherwork. The natural beige tone gradually develops into a deep caramel patina over time, reflecting the craftsmanship behind every hide.
