Leather carving: Types of leather



Leather can be embossed with help
of a beveler and a hammer.
The dents made with these tools
create a pattern or picture as a whole.

Although, not every kind of leather can be carved.
This procedure can only be applied onto vegetal tanned leather,
that is otherwise untreated.
Ergo, when the leather still possesses its smooth grain side.
