Charcoal

Your wallet in charcoal sharkskin was crafted with the traditional saddlery and leathercrafting know-how of Duret Paris. We have been bringing our exacting quality, subtle style, and eye for perfection to our unique and authentic leather goods for over 25 years. The quality of our leathers and skins is paramount to us, since they will be the cornerstone of the wallet or accessory you select. The leather of your wallet or accessory is then dyed the desired color, charcoal, using natural pigments. A hallmark of Duret Paris, a patinated charcoal can also be achieved through the application of beeswax. Your charcoal leather wallet can be monogrammed with your initials – or someone else’s, if it is to be a gift.

Shark

The sharkskin wallets crafted by Duret Paris are distinguished by their two-tone grain, a characteristic that is particularly sought after by designers of luxury products. Sharkskin is a highly prized exotic leather, also known for its great strength. With our profound understanding of working with different leathers, we have the expertise to dye your sharkskin wallet in beautifully subtle shades using age-old techniques that combine natural pigments and the application of beeswax to create a patina. All our work using sharkskin leather meets the criteria set out in the Washington Convention (CITES).

Nubuck

Leather wallets with a nubuck finish are always very popular. This type of leather is refined in the tannery by finely sanding the grain. This gives the hide the velvety, napped look that nubuck is known for – not to be confused with suede, though. Your deluxe Duret Paris nubuck leather wallet is entirely handmade and each is unique. They bring assured elegance to any outfit, and can be ordered in a wide range of colors, from classic shades to more unusual colors that really pop! A nubuck wallet is one of the pieces that requires a little extra care to keep it in tiptop condition. This luxurious leather needs an occasional going-over with a soft-bristled brush to remove any dust, and can be waterproofed using specialist products.
