Oakley Report post Posted October 20, 2015 Here are two sellers in Germany which sell exotic leathers. I never bought there anything, but both have a quite good assortment. http://bladesandmore.de // http://www.tierpraeparator.de/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oakley Report post Posted October 20, 2015 I'm not sure if there's a tannery, but of course wholesaler. If you google you find a lot of them, I think that most of the big ones can order exotics, too. In Germany for example I found http://www.lederhandel-schwemann.de/ they sell gators, crocs, snakes... I don't know where you're from, but if you are willing to pay, you can get them without a problem. Just call one, I think they have it or can tell you another adress.

simontuntelder Report post Posted October 20, 2015 No tanneries come to mind. I think there are some finishing companies in France and Italy doing some exotics. Italhide S.p.a might be worth checking out. For some reason alligator is really hard to come by in Europe (could be legislation) and I rarely see shark. Stingray is easy to find and so is crocodile.

How are you? Thank you very much for your time!!! I am from Europe , so i don't have any problem ιf the wholesaler is from Europe. It is important for me the wholesaler to have various of colors and online eshop , or something easy way as i can to choose and buy. No tanneries come to mind.

Iam looking for croco or alligator (i prefer belly alligator that has small texture) , polished stingray , ostrich leg ,shark and maybe and some toad. I wanth these to make watchstraps. So i want the wholesaler to have various colors. I will prefer somebody who has online page as to buy directly from his eshop. (In past i found one wholesaler on ebay but now i dodn't find him - maybe was deleted) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
