EVE Matte Calf Hides
DESCRIPTION
EVE leather, crafted from calfskin, combines firmness with suppleness and features a matte appearance. With a pressed grain texture, EVE stands out for its soft touch and flexibility, showcasing a spectrum of colors that add vibrancy to your creations. EVE's nearly smooth surface with a tiny, printed grain adds a unique touch, while its slight sheen evolves into a softened patina over time.
Named for the hues it portrays, EVE features a satin appearance and a tight, regular grain achieved through pressure printing. Similar to other 'pressed' materials, EVE maintains durability akin to EP leather, distinguishing itself with a softer, more natural feel. Often compared to the appearance of TG leather, EVE captures attention with its supple hand and varied colors, making it a versatile choice for your leather projects.
