Description
Snake embossed lambskin is a soft garment hide pressed with a fine snake-scale pattern and finished in metallic Bronze or Silver with a holographic shimmer that shifts as the light moves. The emboss is pressed into the skin rather than printed on, so the scales have genuine relief. Hides run 8-9 square feet at 2 oz. (0.7-0.9 mm).
Why Choose Snake Embossed Lambskin
- Scale pattern embossed into the hide, with real relief rather than a flat print
- Metallic finish with a holographic shift – it photographs and stage-lights well
- Soft, light 2 oz. lambskin that skives thin and sews on a domestic machine
- Semi-vegetable tannage, so it takes edge finish better than a straight chrome skin
- Whole hides rather than the small plates a real exotic comes in
Best Uses for Snake Embossed Lambskin

Ordering
Snake embossed lambskin is sold by the hide. The scale pattern has a direction, so lay matching panels the same way round and cut them from the same area. A metallic finish can craze if it is creased hard, so avoid folding tight against the face and keep heat away from it. For the printed snake hides see our Rizzy Snake Print Lambskin and Glazer 3D Snake Print Lambskin, or browse our Exotic Lambskin, Metallic / Foil Leather and full Lambskin ranges.
