The quality of our leathers and skins is paramount to us, since they will be the cornerstone of the glasses case or accessory you select. The leather of your glasses case or accessory is then dyed the desired color, pale green, using natural pigments. A hallmark of Duret Paris, a patinated pale green can also be achieved through the application of beeswax. Your pale green leather glasses case can be monogrammed with your initials – or someone else’s, if it is to be a gift.

Elephant

Choosing elephant hide as a leather for your glasses cases makes for an uncommon look, because it has a very distinctive appearance with a dense, rich texture marked with creases. Elephant hide is rare and has a wilderness feel to it, with a bit of a vintage vibe. It is generally dyed in sober colors like shades of black, blue, khaki, or beige, using natural pigments. Your elephant hide glasses cases will chiefly stand out for the texture of its elephant leather, and the fine craftsmanship required to work it. Duret Paris sources elephant hides that meet the criteria set out in the Washington Convention (also known as CITES), which governs international trade in endangered species of wild fauna and flora.
