Fish Leather

Fish Leather Keychains

The fish leather keychains are hand stitched using vegetable bark tanned fish leather and reindeer leather.
The fish skin key fobs are made using zero waste materials that would have otherwise been discarded.

I purchase my reindeer leather from Sami suppliers in Norway, Sweden and Finland. Reindeer leather is a precious commodity and the Sami people use it for their clothing, making belts, straps, bags and other items. Generally they only sell small scraps to others, that they would not normally use.

I hand tan some of the fish leathers that I use, and also purchase small quantities of pre-tanned fish skins from other suppliers.

All of my Fish Leather products are now sold through my PAIVATAR – FOLKS SHOP.
