Avanti calfskin is a fine, tight-grained semi-aniline leather with a smooth, nearly flawless finish. It is thin with a "stand-up" firmness making it particularly ideal for accessories such as handbags and small leather goods. Chrome tanning and semi-aniline dyeing ensure long-term color-fastness and uniformity, water resistance, and a supple hand.
Avanti is perfect for accessories - handbags, wallets, small leather goods, and shoes as well as can be used for small upholstery projects that don't require large cuts (dining chairs, armchairs, etc.). Due to its temper, it can also be used for structured jackets and apparel.
Skins come in the following measurements below as a half hide.
