Quote:How do you get the leather to conform to the shape of the bowl and flanged rim, especially at the point that the two meet? Leather will stretch a certain amount, but that seems like it would take some kind of specialized press or something, and considerable weight to force the leather to conform. After the shape is stable, then it would be time to glue the leather to the wood?

The vatican shield was stitched there.So the rim was a separate piece. But I know it can be done with one piece,i have seen it in a reconstruction,and it perfectly suited the bowl.I've no idea on leather working,though,so I can't help you.
