Review on LolliBeads (TM) 1.5 Mm Genuine Round Leather Cord Braiding String Black 10 Meters (10 Yards) by David Dugas

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Stiff and brittle in my review

The cord came very stiff and felt like it would crack if I tried to bend it more than 90 degrees.I tried using Horseman's One-Step to soften it, as that has worked on other leathers I've owned, but while it made it slightly more pliable, it did not soften it.

I now have the cord in a bag with oil, and I'm hoping that will make it softer and supple but I'm not holding my breath.All I wanted to do with it was make a zipper pull for my purse, either as a simple knot or perhaps even a tassel, however I can't even get it to knot, let alone try to bend and wrap it for a tassel. At least it was only six bucks.

Pros
  • Too stiff for my purpose.
Cons
  • It broke with in a week. Almost lost my favorite locket.
