In this age of “technology this”, and “technology that”, it is comforting to know that there is a corner in America where tradition appears frozen in time, carefully preserved and has not changed.  The art of making leather that has been perfected over fifteen generations and has withstood the test of time. One that has lived through many Presidents, world wars, droughts, and recessions is still practiced with dedication. The place where you will find it is a charming tannery called Pergamena Parchment and Leathers, which is owned and operated by the Mayer Family of New York. THOL is proud to introduce one of their leather gems to our Crafting community.  

The Meyer family has been in business continuously since 1550, and the tannery is located here in the scenic Hudson Valley of New York, USA. With a long history of crafting fine leathers, the family has honed their skills over five centuries, ensuring that every piece of leather that they produce meets their highest quality, yet retains that artisanal hand-made touch.

This luxurious vegetable tanned cow calf leather is a masterpiece, offering a smoothness and luxurious feel that has few to match. One of the key qualities of the leather is its medium firm temper, which provides a perfect balance between durability and comfort. Whether you're looking for a leather that will last for years or one that feels exquisite, this handmade leather is sure to exceed your expectations.

As a vegetable-tanned leather, this leather is crafted using natural tannins extracted from bark and other plant matter. This traditional method results in a leather that is not only beautiful but also environmentally friendly. They only source from sustainable farms that care for their animals, and their leathers are guaranteed byproduct of the food chain. You can rest assured that this leather has been crafted with care for both the animals and the environment. It is sure to impress even the most discerning of your customers.
