About Us

Beautiful Hides Co. is a success story built from disaster – as the saying goes, ‘when life throws you lemons – make lemonade’ This store is my lemonade.

"Every time you purchase from my small business this owner does a happy dance"
Welcome to our Store

We are so excited to be here, and I love that you are here.

We are situated in West Launceston, right next to the beautiful Cataract Gorge in Tasmania, Australia. When you purchase from us you are supporting a dream. 

Diane hand-selects everything in this store, including the beautiful quality cow hides.  Each piece is unique so you get the exact item you see in the image. 

Diane loves nature.  She had the opportunity to tan her first hide at the age of 14 and loved it.  She had her first shop in Berry, NSW.  She loves what she sells, and loves animals too. 

Beautiful Hides Co. sells to customers worldwide including Europe, UK, and America.  All her furs are from sustainable sources, and are ethically produced.

We source from the world best tanneries of the finest leathers and can have rugs, throws, cushions and clothing made to order. You can contact me with any questions or requests you may have.

Thanks for being here! Diane
