This smoked hide was made through many hours of skilled labour. No electric tools were used in the process,  Every step was done by hand, thoughtfully, carefully. 
 
This hide is traditionally tanned; loosely meaning that this hide was tanned naturally, through indigenous teachings passed on for generations, putting traditional knowledge into practice. 
 
Unlike commercially tanned hides, this hide has not undergone any chemical treatments whatsoever.
 
This hide also has natural imperfections such as;
-Stretch marks & veins on one side that show the growth of the deer throughout their lifespan,
