5/16 OBLONG SPOT GUNMETAL PLATE PACK/24
Description
In jewelry making, spots, also known as leather spots or rivets, are small decorative or functional components used to embellish and reinforce leather pieces. Typically made of metal, spots come in various shapes, such as round, square, or star-shaped, and are often adorned with textures or designs. To use spots in leather jewelry making, you press or set them into pre-punched holes in the leather using a specialized setting tool or mallet. This process involves inserting the spot through the hole and then securing it in place by folding or crimping its prongs on the underside of the leather. Add visual interest and a touch of flair to leather pieces, such as bracelets, belts, or bags. Strengthen areas of leather that experience frequent stress or wear, helping to prevent tears and prolong the life of the piece. Form patterns or designs on the leather surface, providing a unique and custom look to the jewelry item. Overall, spots are a versatile and stylish addition to leather jewelry, offering both decorative and practical benefits.
