    Hey everyone. Need help IDing this leather. For so long I haven't know what it is. Started the size of my fist, now it's the size of my head.

    Leather kind of looks like a cabbage leather, though its hard to tell from the picture.

    I'm agreeing with Corailline on the monti digi for SPS, though a closer picture with daylights would definitely help.

    I don't think it's a cabbage. It does not have a plate look to it. That's what I thought for a while.

    Maybe, I don't know. It doesn't finger like the devils hand leather. It's seriously the shape of a rhinoceros head. That's what we've called it because we don't know what it really is.

    A little better pic with the whites on.

    I vote call NASA. Seriously though, I do not know of any leather that does not show polyps.
