Sheridan Floral Embossed Belt Blank

Really nice grain on this leather, the full-gown cowhide feels substantial and stiff until you work it. I punched my holes with a standard rotary punch and the embossing held up perfectly through the process. It's a solid blank if you want to add your own dye and finish.

The embossing is deep and crisp all the way down, which makes the finished belt look way more expensive than the raw blank suggests. I’m a beginner at leatherwork and found the trimming and hole-punching pretty forgiving, plus the full-grain hide has a nice, sturdy heft that should hold up for years

Trimming and punching the holes myself was easier than I expected, the full-grain cowhide is thick but still flexible. The embossed floral pattern feels crisp and deep all the way down the strip, looks like it’ll hold up great after dyeing.
