5 ways to distinguish between genuine
and fake cowhide
Cowhide is the most commonly used natural raw material,
accounting for 2/3 of the world's total leather production. Leather is also
used in the production of leather goods. From leather bags, leather shoes,
belts to straps, large and small leather goods can be found. It's the figure. Just
how much of these cowhide is leather? This time, I will introduce practical leather
identification tips to help you identify genuine and fake cowhide.
▲The cowhide products are full of our lives, and it is important to
distinguish their authenticity at the time of purchase.
1.Eye view
The untreated dermis surface has uneven grainy lines,
arranged in an irregular arrangement, with small and clear breathing holes on
each particle surface. The distribution and shape of these breathing holes are
different for each animal, yellow cowhide. The pores are relatively uniform,
the pores of the yak are coarser, the pores of the sheepskin are fish scales,
and the pigskins are triangular. If you can see the section of the skin, you
will find that the side of the dermis is smooth and the other side is fluffy.

which are arranged irregularly.
2. Touch
As mentioned earlier, the surface of the dermis has a grainy
texture that feels uneven. Through pulling, you can feel the good toughness of
the leather. We can feel the feeling of the hand by touching the surface of the
leather by hand. The leather feels elastic and elastic, and the leather folds
naturally. The artificial leather feels like plastic, and the rebound
elasticity is poor, and the hand feel is very bad.

3. smell
The leather itself has a special smell that smells like a
faint animal smell; artificial leather is a stimulating chemical smell that
smells like plastic. However, some unscrupulous people spray the
the smell of leather-like leather in artificial leather, so pay special attention
when purchasing.
4. Burning
Taking a little bit of dermal debris for burning will
produce a protein smell similar to the burnt hair. The burnt residue will not
agglomerate and will become powdery when lightly pinched; artificial leather
will produce a pungent chemical smell and burn residue. It will form a strong and
not easy to spread.
5. Drip
Drop the small drops of water on the surface of the leather
. Because the leather has pores, the water drops will be inhaled after a
few minutes, and the water stains will dry and feel sticky. Leather that is not
absorbent is probably artificial leather.
