Characteristics of natural vegetable skin tanned with Sego oil

The vegetable tanned leather with “Sego” (animal oil) has peculiarities that distinguish it from tanned leather to natural plant. The tanning process is the same, the difference lies in the fact that animal fat is added at some point of the process. This causes the leather to assume certain characteristics:

Greater wear-resistant.
Darker color.
If rubbed, this leather usually becomes more shiny and beautiful, this fact is linked with the best wear resistance: the usage and time instead of worsening the skin pulls the best out of it.
The cost of tanning of the Sego leather greatly affects the price, which is why this skins are considered more valuable for the particular workmanship they have undergone.

The leather itself has a very nice vintage look. I bought it to make some shoe uppers and I think it will do nicely. One star down for two rather big holes in the center of the hide.
