Characteristics of Vegetable Tanned Oiled Leather (Vacchetta)

The vegetable vacchetta tanned leather has peculiarities that distinguish it from other vegetable tanned hides:

  • Greater wear-resistant.
  • Darker color tending to the light-brown.
  • 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 oiled leather greatly affects the price, which is why this skins are considered more valuable for the particular workmanship they have undergone.

Lovely leather, I have no idea what people mean when they complain about the smell - it does not smell at all! The color is a bit lighter than pictured, I wouldn’t say it’s much darker than veg tan which has not been oiled, but the leather is really beautiful, looks durable and is a charm to work with.

Not recommended. This leather smells so bad. I left this skin outside but it’s still stinky and I don’t even know if I use it eventually or just throw away. Also it’s too floppy.

Comment from BuyLeatherOnline the 28/08/2023
Dear Tetiana, it has the smell of oiled vegetable tanned leather. You can recognize this special tanning just from the smell. If you don't like it we suggest you to use chrome tanned leather or vegetable tanned leather without animal fat which gives that characteristic smell of oiled veg tan leather.

After having some issues with a milled calf side that had to large injuries in the middle of the skin, they sold me a wonderful hide in A-grade veg tan oiled calf side for a good price. Best leather I've ever seen.

The leather you sent me is bad and smells bad I know that is cheap but the quality is bad.

Comment from BuyLeatherOnline the 24/10/2022
Hello Julio thank you for your order and review. The item you are talking about, being an oiled item, has a smell that can sometimes be more pronounced depending on the fatliquors used. In fact, when we talk about tallow leather we are talking about a leather to which animal fats have been added in the tanning process. These fats can vary from article to article and depending on personal tastes they may like it or not. Obviously this is a good priced leather that must be considered as a whole, it is likely that some more expensive items have a more pleasant smell (always depending on taste) but we have never encountered complaints from customers about this particular item about the smell, also because it is the smell that characterizes the real vegetable tanned leather from a fake leather. We definitely suggest leaving your skin in the air so as to mitigate it and contacting us if you have any problems before leaving a negative review sending an email to info@buyleatheronline.com. We are always at your complete disposal to find a solution to the problem (including exchanges of goods or sending replacements when necessary). Thank you
