Kidskin

Kidskin is traditionally made from goatskin – more specifically, the skin of young goats (or 'kids'), although equivalent leathers such as lambskin and chickenskin (actually a form of calfskin) give the same effect.

Early flexible hair rollers were sometimes made from kidskin, giving a very tight curl.

David Laurent de Lara, describing himself as illuminating artist to Queen Victoria, favoured Italian kid vellum for his work.

[4] A form of early medieval parchment, called carta lustra, acting as tracing paper was made using kidskin.

[6][7] Kid-leather is often used in the construction of musical instruments such as the bag of the tsampouna, a form of Greek bagpipes.
