Embossed & Patterned Cowhide Leather

All hides are individually photographed. What you see is exactly what you'll receive unless otherwise stated.

Embossed & Patterned Cowhide Leather

Embossed cowhide leather combines the durability and versatility of cowhide with patterns and textures pressed into the surface of the leather. Depending on the hide, the embossing can range from subtle texture to bold patterns that become a major part of the finished project.

We carry a changing selection of embossed leather hides and patterned cowhide leather, including alligator, crocodile, ostrich, snake and other reptile patterns, along with floral, basket weave and other decorative designs.

Leather for Handbags, Purses & Accessories

Embossed cowhide is a popular choice for handbags, purses, wallets, journals and other leathercraft where the texture or pattern of the leather becomes part of the design. Depending on the weight and temper, these hides can be soft and flexible or have more body and structure.

Choosing an Embossed Cowhide

Colors, patterns, weights and finishes can vary considerably from one hide to another. We photograph the actual hides whenever possible so you can see the pattern, color and character of the leather you are purchasing.

Our Leather Weight & Thickness Guide explains how leather weight is measured and can help you determine whether a particular hide will work for your project.
