They also make the perfect souvenir from Scotland, the home of single malt Scotch. Features: made from full-grain vegetable-tanned leather made solely by hand-crafting processes (cut, punched, stitched, stamped, & burnished by hand) comes with the flask funnel. carefully made by ourselves in our leather workshop in Edinburgh, Scotland OUR LEATHER The reason we prefer full-grain vegetable-tanned leather is to make you an item that will be unique to you, that will age beautifully & develop a character, & that will be used for long years. Full-grain leather is the type of leather whose surface hasn’t been altered at all. Because of this, it has natural markings (such as blemishes, branding, & stretch marks). However, this means it is the most strong & durable type of leather since it has not gone through any process (alterations). The natural markings on it are welcomed as unique characteristics rather than defects & the items made by full-grain leather are praised because of being one of a kind. Vegetable-tanned leather is processed using natural ingredients (such as tree bark) as opposed to chemicals. Hence, leathers produced using this process are not chemical-exposed & environmentally friendly. The colours of these leathers are more natural, warmer & richer & they age more beautifully. OUR HANDSTITCHING PROCESS We choose to solely apply handcrafting processes & use hand-stitching because of which it takes more time to make our items compared to items made with machine-led processes. However, there are two important reasons that make us choose this harder & longer method of making. Firstly, hand-stitched leather items are much superior in strength & durability. Both the type of thread that is suitable for machine-stitching & the way stitches hold together makes the machine-stitching more prone to breakings. The thread used in hand-stitching is thicker & hence stronger. in addition, the way stitches hold together makes it much less possible to break or loosen. Secondly, hand-stitching arguably provides a more aesthetic look. Although the aesthetic perception differs from person to person, most people find hand-stitching more beautiful because of the natural look & strong character of the stitches. Because of the unique characteristics mentioned above (differences in natural tanning & hand-crafting processes), there may be slight variations in each item. This means your item will be unique to you & may slightly differ from the picture. Personalised Handmade Tan Leather Hip Flask With Scottish Thistle – Free Personalisation Steel Sleeve Gift
