LEATHER SCRAP - PAY WHAT YOU WISH
A one pound selection of leather scraps:
-
curated mix of solids and patterns
-
a mix of real and faux
-
all pieces approximately 1 sq. ft. or less.
*No packaging for pay what you wish scraps
*Please keep in mind that you will be receiving a random selection of real and faux fur scraps, no customizations are available.
These leather scraps are recovered from high-end designers in New York City, sold as a sustainable alternative to destruction and discard in landfill.
