Salmon Leather – Upcycling

In our quest for materials that combine refinement and environmental responsibility, salmon leather stands out as a valuable and innovative alternative. Sourced from hides recovered from French agri-food partners, this leather is the result of an upcycling process that transforms waste into a noble material, without encouraging overfishing or compromising biodiversity.

Worked using vegetable tanning methods using natural extracts of leaves, roots, or fruits, salmon leather has a fine, even grain, characterized by unique patterns reminiscent of fish scales. Its fineness in no way alters its exceptional robustness, due to the hide's cross-fiber structure.

This leather is admirably suited to the creation of high-end leather goods, such as wallets or watch straps, adding a touch of originality and sophistication. Its ability to develop an elegant patina over time makes it a preferred choice for creations combining aesthetics and durability.

By incorporating salmon leather into our collections, we affirm our commitment to ethical and responsible fashion, without compromising on quality and luxury. Each piece made with this unique material reflects our desire to combine excellent craftsmanship with respect for the environment.
