Leather goods are mainly the leather that has been processed by animal skin.
There are many different kinds of leather, mainly are pig leather, cowhide leather, sheep leather, horse leather and so on. The cowhide leather is divided into yellow cowhide leather and buffalo leather.
If it is according to its level, it can be divided into full grain leather (top layer skin), split leather (second layer skin), split leather (third layer skin).
From expensive to cheap ones are: fox tanned leather, goat tanned leather, rabbit fur leather, water leather, etc.... very expensive, first-class feel, we are not going to list here.
Identify meathods:
1. Eye view
a) the surface of the genuine leather has irregular granular shape, and also has an uneven shape, and each granular surface has a very fine breathing hole, which is very clear. The breathing holes of the skin of different animals are different. For example, the pores of yellow cowhide leather are relatively uniform, the cattle are relatively coarse, the pores of goatskin leather are like fish scales, and the pigskin leather is triangular.
Clear.
b. If you can see that the cut surface of the skin is the best, it is generally smooth on one side and fluffy on the other.
3. Touch
Using hand to contact leather goods directly, feel the feel of the skin, generally the surface of the leather has a different size of the grain, press it by hand, it can be elastic, pull the skin with a hand, you can feel the toughness and smoothness of the skin.
Generally inferior skin or lower-level skin, artificial leather, there has been a difference in this feeling.
5. Smell
a) Whether it is genuine leather or fake leather or even artificial leather, it has its own odor.
b) The real leather goods have the smell of leather itself, with a slight faint smell of animals. The fake leather, or artificial leather does not have this smell, especially the artificial leather, the is very pungent, like plastic, not very good, and not heathy for the human body.
c) Many untrusted manufacturers spre the leather smell on the artificial leather to make it feel like genuine leather, cause the genuine leather price is very expensive.So we need to be carefule when we buy leather products.
6. Burn
a) We can tell the true and false leather after burning a scrap of leather. Real gold is not afraid of fire. Genuine leather: the smell of leather after ignition is the same as the smell of human hair is burned. If you do not remember the smell, you can burn the hair first. The result of the combustion is that the burning matter does not agglomerate, and the hand is pinched down to form a powder. Moreover, the leather has better flammability and burns longer than artificial leather/PU.
b, Artificial leather, other fake leather, burning with a strong chemical smell, and less products are sputum, not easy to form a powder.
From here, you can basically know how to tell the true and fake leather.
