Buff Leather 3".

A Leather Buff is a type of polishing tool used in jewelry making to achieve a smooth, shiny finish on metal surfaces. It is made of a soft, high-quality leather material that is able to hold polishing compounds and apply them evenly to the metal surface. The 3" diameter size of this buff is a convenient size for smaller jewelry pieces or intricate details, and its leather material provides a gentle touch for delicate metals.

Leather buffs are commonly used in the final stages of polishing a metal piece, after any scratches or rough spots have been removed. They are especially effective for achieving a high shine on precious metals such as gold and silver.

One unique use for a Leather Buff in jewelry making is to create a textured or patterned finish on metal. By using the buff with a lower-grit polishing compound or applying pressure in different directions, the surface of the metal can be given a unique, artisanal look.

A must-have jewelry making item to use alongside a Leather Buff is a polishing compound, such as jeweler's rouge or tripoli. These compounds are used with the buff to create a smooth, polished surface on metal.
