The Various Types of Fashionable Leather From Goat Skin

Goat skin refers to the skin of a goat, which by long term usage, is denoted by the term Morocco leather.

Tanned leather from goat skin is considered extremely durable and is commonly used to make rugs (for example in Indonesia) and carpet binding. It is often used for gloves, boots, and other products that require a soft hide. Kid gloves, popular in Victorian times, are still made today. It has been a major material for leather bookbindings for centuries, and the oldest European binding, that of the St Cuthbert Gospel in the British Library is in red goat skin. Goat skin is used for a traditional Spanish container for wine bota bag (or called goat skin). Traditional kefir was made in bags from goat skin.

Non tanned goat skin is used for parchment or for drumheads or sounding boards of some musical instruments, e.g., mišnice in medieval Europe,bodhrán in Ireland, esraj in India and for instrumental drum skin named bedug in Indonesia.
