embossed leather

Stamped animal skin

Embossed leather is leather that has been stamped or pressed with a pattern or design, creating a raised surface texture.

The process can mimic exotic skins like crocodile or ostrich at lower cost, or add decorative flourishes to book covers, furniture, and accessories.

The journal had an embossed leather cover with floral motifs.
