Round Leather Cord - Naturally Dyed
Our Round Leather Cord is made from top grain leather that is center cut from the hide to ensure strength and consistency. It is precision cut for a clean, consistent round shape that is smooth, flexible, and easy to work with. The cord is naturally oiled for additional softness, while still maintaining its durability. This round leather craft cording is colored with natural, lead-free dye that fully absorbs into the leather, allowing the natural characteristics of the leather to display with rich color variance.

What is leather cord?
Leather cord and lace are long, thin strips of leather that are durable and flexible. The material is commonly used for bracelets, necklaces, beading, drawstrings, hatbands, bolo ties, stitching, laces, woven goods, tassels, fringe, piping, and repair.
What are splices?
Like leather straps, leather cord is a natural product made from cow hide and can only be as long as the animal itself. Splices are when cord from multiple hides are glued together to look like a continuous piece. While this may seem like a good thing, it creates a weak point in the cord. Without splices, you know where the weak point is and can work around it. Our leather cord does not contain splices. Instead, you can clearly see where one piece comes to an end and another begins.
