Who are we ?

Our companies Compagnie des Cuirs Précieux (Paris), Louisiane (Milan) and Reptile Tannery of Louisiana (Lafayette) are able to offer you a vast selection of exotic leathers produced in one of our four tanneries. You will also find our calf leather section with Annonay Tannery and Du Puy Tannery who possess the emblematic Box Calf expertise. Jullien Tawery, for the goat section, is based in Chabris. They use an artisanal manual tanning technique producing among others chagrin goat leather.

Since 1923, with the help of our artisans who have inherited the tradition and the expertise of our ateliers, and thanks to the restructuring of the tanneries of Montereau, Vivoin, Cuneo and RTL, we are capable of helping you understand the most precise details regarding our leathers, which are worked by hand and conceived from the heart.

Beyond the fundamental knowledge of chemistry, the handling and observation of leathers is the core of our tanning profession, which is a craft that is learned only through hands-on experience. Hence, it is in the very heart of our production sites that our expertise is transmitted, by means of generations of experienced artisans who keep their expertise alive by passing it on to the younger generations.

It is a profession based as much on the senses as on science. The tanning artisans learn together to evaluate the texture of a leather, its voice, its visual aspects, while always focused on the characteristics of the material and to better serve our customers. Tools and industrial methods are at their service so they can quickly respond to the orders, satisfying the required times and volumes, always achieving the expected quality level.
