Our Scottish rawhide is handmade using traditional techniques. We work with Scottish red deer, roe deer, goat, sheep, and salmon skins, each sourced with great care. Every hide is processed slowly by hand, with respect given to the animal at every stage. This approach allows the material to retain its strength, resonance, and natural beauty.

Our rawhide and parchment are well suited to drum making, manuscripts, and a wide range of creative and practical applications. Thickness can be varied according to use, whether flexibility, strength, or translucency is required.

Because our rawhide is a living, natural material, each piece will differ in colour, surface, markings, thickness, and dimensions. These natural variations ensure that no two pieces are ever the same.

As a general guide, a typical red deer rawhide - due to its large size - can produce two to three drums. Standard dimensions are approximately 135–150 cm in length by 95–115 cm in width, though sizes will vary considerably.
