Description
Pearl Sapphire Blue lambskin leather is a soft nappa hide finished with a pearlised sheen over a deep sapphire blue – 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 5-11 square feet at 2 oz. (0.7-0.9 mm) – six size bands, the widest choice in the pearlised range.
Why Choose Pearl Sapphire Blue Lambskin Leather
- Pearlised finish with real depth – it catches light without the plastic look of a foil
- A rich blue that photographs and stage-lights well
- 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
- Six size bands from 5-6 up to 10-11 sq. ft., so you buy close to what you need

The Leather
Ordering
Pearl Sapphire Blue 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 Blues & Purples lambskin, the full Lambskin selection, or our Metallic / Foil Leather. Quantities are limited.
