Piper & Skye Pirarucu wristlet in VGUC
8" x 5"
Native to the rivers of the Brazilian Amazon, Pirarucu is a local dietary staple. Rather than see the skins discarded, Piper & Skye transforms them into stunningly sustainable handbags.
12x Lower Carbon Footprint than Bovine
In a first-of-its-kind study led by Piper & Skye, Pirarucu fish leather (a direct food by-product) was found to have a carbon footprint that is 12x smaller than traditional bovine leather. It is for this very reason that Piper & Skye has chosen Pirarucu as its signature material.
Luxury With A Low Environmental Impact
Our Pirarucu leather is 100% free from harmful chemicals including heavy metals and nanoparticles. All organic waste generated during production is used as compost material, while water used in the tanning process is collected, pH-corrected, and then upcycled as irrigation water on reforestation farms.
A Material Infused With Sustainability
By utilizing Pirarucu, Piper & Skye supports a uniquely sustainable product cycle. Making greater use of the whole Pirarucu fish provides fishermen with economic benefits that de-incentivize the pursuit of more environmentally harmful practices such as cattle farming and deforestation.
