Josh33806 Report post Posted March 20, 2013 I'm particularly interested in 'french aniline finish calf leather' I am considering making some high end fashion wallets...I can't find it though. Cheers Josh Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Chee Report post Posted March 20, 2013 I found this place called pergamena.net. They're the tannery that was shown on that dirty jobs show. They do veg tan calf skin that's aniline dyed. I just placed any order to see what their stuff is like. Expensive but hopefully along the lines of what you're looking for. Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josh33806 Report post Posted March 22, 2013 Andrew, your a champion! Thank you very much, I will get onto that in the near future hopefully. What are you planning on using it for mate? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Chee Report post Posted March 22, 2013 I don't really know. I just tend to buy a little of something when I find new sources for interesting or hard to find leathers. Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
conceptdiba Report post Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) Haven't been on here in a while; pure chance I came across this post! I have a supplier for this. amelia.corey@charter.net is her email. She's a representative based in Connecticut for a french tannery. Very expensive, full hides only in black or brown (both in stock) and it's over $11/ft, so you're looking at a few hundred dollars per skin. She will send you samples. "Vocalou" is what you probably want. Very glossy finish french calf. This is the stuff Hermes uses. You honesty probably wont find nicer french calf, I think.Tell her Andrew sent you edit: I might add, she isn't a wholesaler, she's a tannery rep. The expensive price isn't due to a markup.
