Fallow deer parchment

Parchment or 'rawhide' of the fallow deer is strong and supple.

Parchment (also known as rawhide) is dried skin, stripped of hair. It is easy to work on when wet and it shrinks again when dry. It is used for drums, lampshades, whips, lasso's or as bones for dogs. It is more durable than normal leather, but on the other hand it is more sensitive to moisture.
