Alum Tawed Spolas

[Feinman]

Really gorgeous work, Giannis!! Sorry I have not commented sooner, I have been sidetracked by weird stuff and painting. It's terribly frustrating to not know precisely how these things were made or from what. I think at least now, with your stunning piece (and if I finally finish mine), we will at least have the bases covered; there are now spolioi made from veg. tanned leather, hide, and now beautiful alum tawed leather. Hard to know how the original stuff was treated.. Anyway, I do plan on finishing things, I just thought I would stay away until I got back to work on things, but then you came out with this stunning piece!
