ADDITIONAL DETAILS

Founded in 1903 in the South of Tarn and set in the beautiful surroundings of the “Montagne Noire” (the black mountains), the tannery Alran S.A.S. has developed a vast expertise in the tanning of goat skins. They are well renown in the luxury community and have many articles used by the top luxury handbags, small leather goods and watch straps houses.

Chevre “Caviar” is one of Alran’s top articles and is produced in a special 23-step process which takes 4 weeks to produce. The Sully Base is then embossed with the small caviar print to provide more durability and scratch resistance. 

The leather is combination tanned, meaning full veg-tanned in crust and then retanned and dyed with some mineral tannage. Caviar has a nice balance of firm and supple. We receive their very top grades 1/2 which are very clean. The hides are a nice size ranging from 4-7 sqft, which are perfect for both small leathergoods and handbags. 

When you combine the unique grain, great temper, durability and beautiful consistent colors across the entire hide, you see and feel the leather you will see why it is a popular article for everyday luxury items
