Finished Size and Recommended Leather Usage
Finished Size: Medium: 26.5cm x 18.5cm x 13cm; Small: 23.5cm x 16cm x 12cm Due to differences in craftsmanship and materials, the final dimensions may vary by 1-2cm, which is within the normal range of error.
Recommended Leather Usage: Approximately 8 to 10 square feet (for reference only). For a better crafting experience and finished project, we recommend using top grain leather or full grain leather. Depending on the project, you can choose different types, textures, and thicknesses of leather. Check out Babylon's high-quality cowhide series for more options.
