Bring warmth, resilience, and a rich tactile experience to your leather projects with Andean Oil Tanned Leather, a versatile, medium-weight leather that blends supple handling with rugged good looks. Tanned using a chrome-based process and generously infused with oils and waxes, this leather is designed to age gracefully while resisting the wear and tear of everyday use.

Warm Earth Tones with a Rustic Finish:

The light brown color of Andean Oil Tanned Leather reflects natural landscapes and traditional leatherworking heritage. With a deep, earthy warmth and subtle tonal variation, it provides a lived-in look from the start—and only gets better over time. The slightly waxy surface enhances depth and helps to resist scratches, while developing a character-rich patina with use.
