The rumen of a cow stomach can also be processed to leather. It is however a very rare leather. The honeycomb structure of the rumen leather is striking and unusual. This makes the surface very three-dimensional and rough. The chamber walls of the fields stand tall. The chamber walls can be ironed down like with salmon leather and can be provided with a colour layer. This makes the surface smoother and thus less sensitive and easier to clean and care.
On the Internet, rumen leather was also offered as udder leather. But this was a mistake. Processed cow udder is not known. Processed Bull testicles however, are known.
Complete rumen skin.
