As a material for the making of shoulder bag, crocodile skin is near-perfect – supple and soft, yet exceptionally tough. Each crocodile skin has its own individual unique scale pattern ensuring that every shoulder bag produced is one of a kind.
The back skin of the crocodile is covered in bones (called osteoderms), we call it hornback skin, so hornback skin and skin on the belly are used. The process of breeding until tanning is a long and tedious one, lasting at least four years. Because of this and its delicate physical nature, crocodile skin is rare and expensive, especially since many species of crocodiles are threatened by illegal poaching.
