full grain leather for flaps of saddle Printed Gavarnie

The saddle leather Printed Gavarnie is the leather for horse saddle flaps. The flaps leather Printed Gavarnie is an full grain leather uncorrected, grained Pécari grain. This leather has a semi-aniline finish. The shades are therefore more uniform, the roughness of the hide is slightly veiled, and the leather resists dirt more easily. The flaps leather Printed Gavarnie is available in black and coffee. It is a vegetable tanned leather and therefore a non-allergenic leather. The vegetable tannins give firmness and a strong resistance to elongation. It has a through tint and a smooth dyed flesh. The full grain leather Printed Gavarnie is nourished with oil in emulsion. The leather will feed on oil in order to be nourished. This leather offers both a suppleness to accompany the movements of the saddle quarter and a firmness to come back flat and smooth after multiple folds.

"I discovered the saddle leathers of Radermecker Tannery during my training at Sellerie Tartaud. Printed Gavarnie flaps leather is a soft leather that is easy to cut, and offered in 2 classic shades regularly used in equestrian upholstery."

Testimony of AB Sellier

"I'm usually not a big fan of printed leathers, but I must admit that Printed Gavarnie leather is really superb to work with. In addition to its resistance, its rendering and finish are perfect. In addition, Radermecker offers a whole range of leather in the same shade: leather for seat, panel and of course Printed Gavarnie leather. This is an element that is not negligible for a saddler-harnesser, because in addition to saving time when ordering, finding all the leathers necessary for the manufacture of equipment, in identical shades, is almost impossible, either with two different suppliers or even with just one."
