SQUAMA Salmon Leather - CARBON SATIN -Choice 1 / Medium

SALMON LEATHER - SATIN CARBON

Discover this salmon leather with matte black scales. An intense and timeless color for understated yet bold creations.

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

The satin collection of the Squama range is a subtle balance between gloss and matte. A specific finish homogenizes the color while strengthening the leather's resistance. The entire surface is plated to set the scales and protect them from friction.
