Salmon leather — a rare, vibrant leather.
Luxury leather goods use it for its exceptional qualities. Its scaled structure creates a natural relief that is impossible to reproduce — each piece is unique. And unlike smooth leathers, it is naturally water-resistant thanks to the properties of fish skin. A quality that matters for a item that is taken out and put away several times a day.
- Visible scale texture—each piece has its own unique pattern
- Naturally water and everyday wear resistant
- 12 × 8 cm format—1 ID slot + 3 card slots
- Sourced from the food industry's hides—zero-waste approach
Handcrafted in Graulhet — entirely by hand.
Graulhet, the historical capital of leather in the Tarn region. This card holder is made here, in a fine leather goods workshop specializing in exceptional leathers. The ID card-sized slot requires precise assembly: it is what gives the whole piece its shape and rigidity.
- 1 ID card slot + 3 card slots
- Product fully lined in leather
- Edges processed in 3 steps: sanding, hot iron creasing, beeswax dye
- Traditional French leather goods expertise

Genuine customer reviews.
"I had been following the publications for some time and eagerly awaited my trip to Paris to see the pieces in person. The experience confirmed all the good things I had thought. The leathers are remarkable, both high-end, ethical, and respectful. The level of finish is exceptional. The welcome mirrors the products: discerning and passionate. The advice is accurate, precise, and perfectly tailored. One can feel a true culture of leather and craftsmanship. An address I wholeheartedly recommend."
"I discovered Atelier Bertrand online while searching for a brand that offered something extra. I've been buying leather pieces for over 25 years: Schott, Chevignon, Redskins, Marlboro… The quality is truly incredible, magnificent! Jérôme is passionate and available. I don't need to look any further…"
“Very happy with my purchase. Go for it with your eyes closed, Jérôme gives excellent advice, and the leathers are magnificent.”
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the dimensions and capacity?
The card holder measures 12 cm in length by 8 cm in height. It has one ID card slot and three standard card slots — enough space to hold papers and payment cards in a single item, without the bulk of a wallet.
What is salmon leather?
Salmon leather is a rare material in leather goods, obtained from skins sourced from the fishing industry — skins that would otherwise be discarded. Its texture features visible scales that create a natural relief impossible to replicate: each piece has its own unique pattern, its own character. It is also naturally water-resistant due to the properties of fish skin.
What is the inner lining?
The product is fully lined in leather — goat or French lamb depending on the color. No synthetic surfaces inside: the feel remains soft and cards are protected.
Where is it made?
Entirely in France, in Graulhet — the historic leather goods capital in the Tarn region. Our partner workshop specializes in exceptional leathers. Each piece is assembled and finished by hand: edge sanding, hot-iron creasing to highlight the seams, and then three layers of beeswax dye applied one by one.
Is salmon leather an ethical choice?
Yes. The leathers used come from the food fishing industry and would otherwise be discarded as waste. Upcycling them into leather goods prevents this waste and gives the material a second life. The tanning methods used are also more environmentally friendly than traditional bovine leather tanning.
Delivery and returns?
Free delivery in France for orders over €200. Returns and exchanges are accepted within 14 days, for unused items in their original packaging. Our showroom at 31 Passage Verdeau, Paris 9th arrondissement, is open by appointment if you wish to see and touch the piece before purchasing.
