CITES: The sale of alligator leather is regulated by the Washington Convention (CITES). Deco Cuir will provide you with all the information on your invoice ensuring the traceability of the products sold. This information must be presented to customs services in case of inspection to prove that these leathers comply with current regulations.

Alligator leather info: This alligator leather comes from farms in the United States. The Mississippiensis alligator (Mississippi) is one of the 4 crocodilian leathers authorized for marketing, along with the Niloticus crocodile (Nile), the Porosus crocodile (marine), and the caiman. Alligator leather is recognizable by its rounded scales on the flanks that become more structured towards the center of the back. 
Crocodile leather has more square scales, while caiman leather has triangular ones. These farm-raised leathers are of better quality because they have fewer scars.

Order info: No shipping outside the European Union.

Please note: Alligator leather flanks are vat-dyed. Slight variations in shade may appear from one production to another. Our teams ensure that pieces of the same shade are shipped within the same order. For reorders, it is possible to receive a slightly different shade.

Each flank is unique: shape and shades may vary slightly.
