Badalassi Wax is some of the most beautiful leather I’ve ever worked with!

Very smooth and nice leather. Rich pull-up and beautiful colors. Excellent to handle.

Many wrinkles and only 1.2m2 instead of 1.4m2. Color also not really as displayed. Will not buy this leather again.
Comment from BuyLeatherOnline the 06/05/2022
Hello, thanks for the order, the color is standard from the tannery, of course screen representation can be different according to the device.

Again, large wrinkles in the leather that cause some issues with quality.

Superb as usual

I bought this veg tanned wax leather to compare to some oiled chrome tanned leather I bought at another site. Both are very nice leather. The chrome tanned leather has a chemical smell to it, the veg tan wax smells like leather plus the pull up is much better. I will be ordering more.
