willow side
A side of a cattle hide, i.e., cut down the
backbone, full chrome, semi-chrome, or vegetable
tanned, and usually colored brown but also
produced in other colors, but never black. It has
a grain pattern formed by BOARDING (1) in one
direction (head to butt). There is some confusion
concerning this leather because at times it is
boarded in two directions, producing a grain
pattern similar to that of BOX SIDE . (351 )
