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 length of the large goat
rawhide (approximately 5 to
6 square feet) averages about 38". The narrowest width is between the shoulders and is about
19.5" to 22.5". The width across the middle is about 25". One
extra large skin we measured at
random was 43” long by 29” wide across the top, 33.5” wide across
the middle, and 40” wide across the bottom. Another was 47"
long and 29" 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.
We also can offer hair-on goat rawhide. This
is ideally suited to making African hand drums.
Rawhide is also referred to as parchment or
vellum.

tubes. For large orders (minimum 100 pieces), it is possible to
offer the rawhide and bleached rawhide flat in boxes instead of
rolled. This is a custom order item. Please allow 6-8 weeks
for shipments of flat rawhide.
Genus
and species: Capra hircus.
