Description
Pearl Dark Chocolate lambskin leather is a soft nappa hide finished with a pearlised sheen over a deep cocoa brown – the lustre sits in the surface and shifts as the light moves rather than reading as a flat metallic. The skin underneath is the same light, supple lambskin as our plain nappa, drum dyed through. Hides run 5-8 square feet at 2 oz. (0.7-0.9 mm).
Why Choose Pearl Dark Chocolate Lambskin Leather
- Pearlised finish with real depth – it catches light without the plastic look of a foil
- A dark brown that carries the markings of an economy grade better than a pale shade
- Soft nappa hand, so the shine does not come at the cost of drape
- Light 2 oz. substance that skives thin and sews on a domestic machine
- Drum dyed through, so trimmed edges stay in tone

The Leather
Ordering
Pearl Dark Chocolate lambskin leather is sold by the hide, with the price set by the size band you choose. A pearlised surface can craze if it is creased hard, so avoid folding tight against the face and keep heat away from it. This is an economy grade, so plan the cut around the markings rather than expecting a clear field, and order everything for one project together – the strength of the pearl varies between skins. For the rest of the range see our full Lambskin selection, our Metallic / Foil Leather, or our Garment Leather. For current stock or volume pricing, email Info@Avetcoinc.com or call 818-890-6680.
