Our Bookcalf originates mainly from New Zealand and Scandinavia. The skins are vegetable tanned using Tara and/or Sumac. They are then aniline dyed and dried on our 'glass' drying machine to enhance the natural smoothness and beauty associated with this quality of leather. The surface is absorbent and lends itself well to additional dyeing by the user.

You can see examples of our Bookcalf on the following finished books:'The Double Crown Club', 'Laphroaig', 'The House South of North' and 'Delta Design Portfolios' that are featured in the 'Showcase' area of our web site.
