split leather Explanation: Spalt: A layer of hide that has been split two or more times. Coarser surface than grain leather (narv); found in many different thicknesses and is heat-resistant as well. Nappa (or glove leather): A thin, soft, durable, pliable, and moisture-resistant full-grained leather. Often used for leather jackets, bags, and clothing. Made from an unsplit sheepskin, lambskin, or kidskin. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2007-03-04 14:00:42 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- See http://www.internationalleathersource.com/elmo/elmofrost.htm for a supporting translation of "narv".
