WUTA Irregular Waxed Bull Leather
Irregularly shaped waxed leather
Brand: WUTA
Full-grain, drum-dyed and waxed cow/bull leather; the main colors are described as vegetable-tanned, while Milkshake White is described separately as semi-vegetable-tanned.
Features
- 3/5 sq ft option; 1 piece of leather. Initial thickness 2.2–3 mm / 5.5–7.5 oz, per-section variance ±0.2 mm. Free thinning is shown for width up to 40 cm and for pieces with a final thickness of at least 0.8 mm.
- 16 colors: Saddle Brown, Black, Coffee, Red, Orange, Yellow, Apple Green, Dark Green, Macaron Blue, Berlin Blue, Navy Blue, Midnight Blue, Purple, Bordeaux Red, Rope Grey, Milkshake White.
- Somewhat firm, elastic, smooth closed surface; absorbs water, for wet molding, carving, stamping, wallets/bags/holsters. Edges can be burnished with water without paint/coating.
- Natural scars, scratches, grain/wrinkles are possible. After thinning, uneven color is explained by uneven dye penetration, fiber density, and different processing of the top and mid layers. Several orders ship in one package.
- The photos show the raw material as bull/cow hide sourced from France. The visible page of the manufacturer's published FZ2412880 report identifies the material as top-grain cowhide; not all three pages are shown.
- The natural-marks list includes scars, loose grain, natural wrinkles, stains, minor scratches and cuts. The back surface is described as dense-fibered and smoothed.
- Milkshake White is a separate semi-vegetable-tanned option: reduced plant tannin for a whiter color and weaker color change; water absorption is shown as lower than fully vegetable-tanned leather. The image uses both chrome-free and combined chrome/vegetable-tanning wording, creating a contradiction; chrome-free composition is not confirmed.
- General area guide, not including waste: 1 sq ft or 30×30 cm for small card holders/coin purses; 2 sq ft or 30×60 cm for short wallets/passport holders/small bags; 3 sq ft for long wallets/clutches; 3–5 for medium bags; 5–15 sq ft for large bags/waist bags. These are design- and cutting-dependent recommendations, not additional purchase options for this product.
- Thickness guide: for bag flap/face/back/side-bottom parts, standard 1.8–2.5 mm (4.5–6.25 oz), choice of initial or 2 mm; for the main body of wallets/card holders/coin purses, 1.5–2 mm (3.75–5 oz), choice of 2 or 1.5 mm; for interior dividers/card layers/linings, 0.8–1.2 mm (2–3 oz), choice of 1 mm.
- This guide gives an initial thickness of 1.8–2.4 mm (4.5–6 oz), while other text and images give 2.2–3 mm. The 0.5 mm cut is only a sample illustration and does not change the at-least-0.8 mm thinning service stated in the text. There is also a 19-code color chart; unnamed codes are not interpreted as extra color names or current stock.
