Description
Horse print cowhide is a hair-on side hide silk screened to mimic a horse coat – broad patches of colour broken by white, with the soft short hair of a pony hide. Stocked in Chestnut and Black. Screened onto genuine hair rather than a flat surface, the markings have depth and movement. Sides run 18-20 square feet at 3 oz. (1.2-1.4 mm).
Why Choose Horse Print Cowhide
- Silk screened onto real hair-on cowhide, with the sheen and depth of a natural coat
- Screened by hand through a heavy metal stencil – colour passes through the open mesh and is held back by the blocked areas, with a separate screen cut for every pattern
- Broad patch pattern that suits rustic and western work without shouting
- Two colorways – warm Chestnut and high-contrast Black, both broken with white
- Large 18-20 sq. ft. sides, so the markings can be placed where you want on a panel
- Substantial 3 oz. weight that holds structure in bags, seating and upholstery

Ordering
Horse print cowhide is sold by the side, and each one falls within the size range you choose. Hair lies in one direction, so cut from the back with a blade rather than shears and lay all the panels of a project the same way round. Every hide is screened individually, so the size and placement of the patches vary from side to side – order everything for one project together when the pattern has to match. For other hair-on stock see our Hair-On Cowhide range, browse all Cowhide, or see our Upholstery Leather. For current stock or volume pricing, email Info@Avetcoinc.com or call 818-890-6680.
