Description

Natural Leather Tanning by Markus Klek is a comprehensive guide to creating soft and supple leather using traditional methods. This book explores the centuries-old art of fat tanning, which involves using natural products like smoke, fat, and plant extracts to process hides and skins.

With step-by-step illustrations, Klek shows how to turn raw pelts and furs into a variety of everyday leather objects, including gloves, moccasins, hats, jackets, and more. The book also covers different tanning methods, such as the "Open Method" and the "Tube Method", along with associated skills like salting, freezing, and drying.

Whether you're looking to create your own leather products at home or simply want to learn about this traditional craft, Natural Leather Tanning is a valuable resource. This book provides a clear and accessible introduction to natural fat tanning, making it easy for beginners to get started.
