Hair on hide Animalia is a mix of spots in a random pattern stenciled across the hide. Animalia is a hair on hide cow hides that have been tanned without removing the natural hair. Animalia hides have a specific tanning process to retain the hair. During the tanning process the hides are treated with oils in order to keep them as soft as possible. Animalia hides are bleached to remove as much of the natural pigment in the hides possible. Even though the hides are bleached the natural pigment will never be fully washed away and you will notice the color variation with the back ground color of these hides. Understand these hairs on hides will not match your swatch exactly and you will have color variation from swatch to your order. Remember that when dying hair the color is absorbed differently in each strand of hair and the pigment left behind in each strand will affect the way the hair takes the color. The spots for this design are stenciled on the surface of the hair and will only be in the area the design is designated. HOH are not tested to meet any leather specifications. If you are looking for a specific spec please let us know and we will do our best to help you with this need. Note that they can fade with prolonged exposure to sunlight and the hair color will dissipate with use in high traffic areas.
