The goat rawhide is thin and therefore ideal for making smaller hand drums, lamp
shades, and craft projects. The pieces are very clean and are not full of
holes. The weight varies somewhat from skin to skin. If you
need a very thin piece or a heavier piece, let us know. Also, there
is variation in the hides from light to dark, so that some of the natural
hides may look bleached. We will do
our best to accommodate small quantities. For orders of six or more
skins, the rawhide will be shipped as a run with varying weights.
The sizes of a few medium goat rawhides average between 32" to 37" long and 22" to 25" wide. The large rawhides average between 33" to 44" long and 24" to 28" wide across the middle. The extra large goat rawhides average 35" to 40" long and 34" to 39" wide. Extra extra large skins average 39" to 43" long across the middle, and 34" to 40" wide across the middle.
The bleached goat rawhide does not have hair on and is
ideal for making furniture, lamp shades, drums, and other craft
projects. It is a nice white. Bleached rawhide is a slightly
heavier weight than regular rawhide. The bleached rawhide that is coded as R-55-51 is a cleaner white than the R-55-50 bleached rawhides. One R-55-51MB rawhide measured 30" long and 27" wide, and weighed 0.60 lbs.
We also can offer hair-on goat rawhide. This
is ideally suited to making African hand drums. The hair-on goat rawhide pictured below is measured to be 50" long, 33" wide across the top, 33.50" wide across the middle, 41.50" wide across the bottom, and weighed 1.88 lbs.
Rawhide is also referred to as parchment or
vellum.
Weight: 2 pieces of Goat Rawhide weighed 1.04 lbs. (1.96
