Description
The Ponte Belly is a high-quality vegetable tanned full grain leather that delivers outstanding value for makers. Thanks to their compact shape and size, bellies are a cost-effective choice for small projects, offering the same Tuscan craftsmanship as larger hides at a more accessible price.
Produced by Conceria Il Ponte, one of Italy’s most respected tanneries, these hides are made with both tradition and responsibility. Il Ponte is gold-rated by the Leather Working Group (LWG) for sustainable tanning practices and is a proud member of the Italian Vegetable Tanned Leather Consortium, preserving heritage techniques.
