Safari Dragon Small Tile Crocodile Embossed Leather Hides & 12x12 Panels

This premium top-grain cowhide leather features an intricately detailed, uniform small crocodile tile embossing that masterfully replicates the clean, consistent scale layouts found on luxury exotic reptile skins. Meticulously finished by our 4th-generation tanning family using classic hand-rubbed aniline dyes, the skins undergo a specialized washing and shrunken final stage. This artisan process brings immense color contrast to the pattern while softening the fibers to achieve a remarkably soft temper and an organic, high-end look that brings instant character to any custom build.

Please note: Because of our traditional hand-dyed aniline finishing methods and final washing processes to semi-shrink the texture, colors will naturally vary from skin to skin, making every single half hide and 12"x12" pre-cut panel completely unique.

Our 12"x12" pre-cut craft panels are cleanly cut to size and absolutely perfect for custom exotic wallets, watch straps, sleek cardholders, rustic notebook covers, distinct hat patches, and premium bag accents. For larger production runs, our full half hides offer premium cutting yields with zero minimum order rules.
