Vegetable tanning Process
Vegetable tanning was the major tanning method until the 20th century, now it is important once again. In the past, each country used their own vegetable tannin recipe. In Europe, they used chestnut, the UK used oak (which was legally specified in certain centuries), the US used hemlock while Russia was famous for the use of willow and birch bark. Russian leather comes from the distinctive odor of birch bark.
Advantages of using the vegetable tanning technique:
- Uses natural ingredients which are Eco-Friendly and recyclable
- The traditional method which makes the leather look completely natural and have a longer life expectancy
- Vegetable tanned leather progresses through time and develops a patina of dark caramel color
- Each product has its own style, color. Because the leather come from other animals or other parts of animals has their own style, smell.
- The color of vegetable tanned leather is rich and warm, it usually takes a longer time to make one product.
