To reduce weave wastage, weave designs may be cut in different sections and placed at different angles when creating the product and thus weave arrangement and tassel placement may vary to image, thus no two products will ever be identical. Leather is either left over leather or a bi product of the local meat industry so may have minor scuff marks and other abrasions.
