Braintanning deerskin is a time consuming, hands-on process. Native Americans processed all of their Leather this way before the advent of commercial tanning. The saying is that every animal has a brain large enough to tan its own hide. Most tanners smoke their braintanned hides. The tanner smoked the deerskin our crafter used to make this Neck Bag Abalone Button. This prevents the hide from becoming stiff if it gets wet and acts as a preservative. You may see unsmoked braintanned hides which have a lovely white color, but they are liable to harden if they become wet.
