Genuine
Leather series 2
Aniline Leather is simply a
leather without any pigment applied to the surface. When selcting an
album made from aniline leathers be aware that natural scaring is
far more prevalent, particularly on large albums, as it is almost
impossible for the album to be made completely free of some sort of
scaring. The natural blemishes do not affect the leather's
durability in any way and as long as they remain within certain
limits, they act as natures imprint of authenticity of leather.
