If you want to add a touch of luxury to your designs you re going to want to know a bit about foiling.
Foil leather goods being imprinted with monograms or names even when using a good quality synthetic gold foil are all subject to the acids used in tanning the leather and to the waxes used in the final process to make the leather have a rich luster.
