Repair Bear Skin
I have been tasked with repairing a bear skin and wonder whether you have any suggestions.
As you can see from the attached images the skin is quite dry and breaking on the edges.
I believe the skin is 15 years old.
I was told to attach some linen sheet to the skin side to stabilize it.
Do you think that's a good idea?
Should I preserve the leather first, use some softener?
I'd appreciate your help or any suggestions.
