Stingray Leather – Radiance in the Service of Luxury
Renowned for its unique texture and incomparable refinement. Derived from the skin of rays or sharks, this exotic leather is distinguished by its naturally beaded surface, composed of enamel and dentin dermal denticles, which give it a remarkable shine and strength.
Appreciated for its exceptional durability, shagreen is considered one of the most resistant leathers in the world, surpassing even traditional cowhide. Its sanded surface reveals a smooth, cloisonné texture, offering a mineral and shimmering appearance, ideal for high-end leather goods.
Used since the 18th century in Europe, this leather adorned the precious objects of the court of Louis XV and experienced a revival during the Art Deco period. Today, it is prized for making watch straps, bringing a touch of timeless elegance to each creation.
By choosing stingray leather, you are opting for a noble and durable material, which will enhance your creations with its unique shine and exceptional character.

HOW TO MEASURE
A WATCH STRAP?
Would you like to entrust us with the making of a bespoke genuine leather watch strap, entirely handmade and hand-sewn in Belgium to equip your timepiece or that of a loved one? It is important to measure some dimensions.
The width of the lug: this dimension is measured at the level of the case of the watch (between the two « lugs ») where the strap strap comes to be fixed. The standard widths are most often: 18mm - 20mm - 22mm - 24mm.
The width of the loop: this dimension is measured inside the loop of your watch strap. The width of the buckle is usually 2mm or even 4mm narrower than the width of the lug and sometimes equal to the width of the lug for a straight watch strap.
The lengths of the two parts of your watch strap: the standard dimensions at Decoster are 115/75, 115mm for the long part and 75mm for the short part. Our atelier Decoster makes bespoke watch straps, so we can adapt these lengths to the dimensions of your choice: 105/65, 125/85, 120/70…
