Members simontuntelder Posted December 29, 2014 Members Report Posted December 29, 2014 At the moment, I work at a leather monger (not the one mentioned) - based in Copenhagen, Denmark but we have a webshop. We have a lot of different fish skins, among them some wolffish in different colours even. Since I don't know if I'm allowed to advertise the company's name, now that I'm somewhat affiliated, please send me a pm if you want the name of the shop. Quote
Members Tiara Posted December 29, 2014 Members Report Posted December 29, 2014 Simon you will have mail shortly. Avg, The fish I have tried appears much thicker. I got some sample packs from sea leather wear in Canada. I think the guy bought out the stock on a company that closed. I got a few sueded, the thinnest and softest, some satin and gloss finished that are quite thick--dyed and finished but backside not trimmed. All are quite strong but I can't say that the finish may be all that durable. There is some info on the site about tear strength etc. Fish leather overall is supposed to be quite strong compared to land critters. It sounds as if Simon would be the person to tell us about its qualities. here is what I had as a quote from 2 years ago. I didn't save the next email but I think I had a followup asking about non-dyed wolffish and cod and there wasn't as big a minimum. Thank you for taking interest in our fish leather. I‘m happy to send you some samples of our colors and finishes in fish leather via mail. Attached is our price and size list in USD. We color to customers orders so we don‘t keep much stock. Our minimum is 20 pcs per color. We don‘t have a white wolffish. We have tried to color it white but it turnes out to be more of a grey color. The natural color of the wolffish is grey. The price of shipping depends on how we ship and the weight of the parcel. We use both post and express delivery like UPS, FedEx and DHL. The price for a small package (up to 1 kilo) is around 53 USD via UPS and around 29 USD via post.
