Cortina Leather - Flamingo


The "Flamingo" leather collection is a leather textile that is reptile-embossed with metallic overlay. It represents a combination of innovative technologies, which provide an eye-catching leather unlike anything else on the market today. The hides are first aniline-dyed, then embossed with a small-scale reptile pattern. Next, a metallic transfer print is applied, superimposing a cloudlike pattern on the leather. A light film is added to seal and protect the leather. In the final step, the hides are "dry-milled", or rotated in a vat, so that the metallic overlay develops a crackly texture. This textile is available in half-hides only and comes in a variety of 5 different color-coordinated options.
