SQUAMA Salmon Leather - GLOSSY BLACK -Choice 1 / Medium

SALMON LEATHER - GLOSSY BLACK

This salmon leather reveals vibrant black scales under a glossy finish. A deep and timeless color for creations that do not go unnoticed.

The salmon leather from the Squama range comes from the French tannery Ictyos, which specializes in marine leather. It is an exceptional leather—thin, supple, with natural scales and a perfectly symmetrical tight grain. This fish leather is highly resistant to friction, water, and UV rays. Its unique properties, unmatched by terrestrial leathers, make it an easy material to work with and produce highly satisfying visual results. This rare leather is highly sought after for ornamentation, leather goods, sheath-making, watchmaking, and jewelry.

The glossy collection of the Squama range has been developed to obtain a luminous, perfectly smooth leather with a uniform shade and increased resistance. The entire surface is plated to set the scales and protect them from friction.
