SQUAMA Salmon Leather - DARK TEMPEST GRADIENT -Choice 1 / Medium

SALMON LEATHER - DARK STORM GRADIENT

Drawing inspiration from the deep nuances of a stormy sky, this lovely dark storm shade gives this salmon leather a unique character. An intense blue that is both vibrant and assertive, immediately catching the eye.

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 tight, perfectly symmetrical grain. This fish leather is highly resistant to friction, water, and UV rays. Its properties, unique and incomparable to terrestrial leather, make it an easy material to work with and provide a highly satisfying visual result. This rare leather is highly sought after for ornamentation, leather goods, sheath-making, watchmaking, and jewelry.

The gradient collection of the Squama range highlights the natural scale pattern by shading the relief and the background of the leather. Each scale is delicately accentuated, bringing out the full depth and brilliance of the leather's color. Thanks to a glossy finish, the leather benefits from a homogeneous tone and enhanced resistance. The entire surface is then plated to set the scales and protect them from friction.
