The art of forming leather
Leather is a formable material and, for certain applications, it can therefore be deformed. Whether for embossing to achieve a surface change, or to obtain round shapes for hats or balls or as art work. Leather is also pre-formed for shoes or saddles to meet the requirements for use.
For the forming of leather, tools or moulds are required. But the processing temperature, the moisture of the leather during this processing, the pressure with which the leather is pressed into the mould and time also play key roles in how strongly and permanently the leather is deformed.
