... it from and if they sell in small quantities such as a single hide. I contacted Perlinger here in Germany because I thought it would be best to source locally and they told me to purchase it from the following website (craft-leather.de) which appears to be run by a family member. Pricing on there is €295 for a grade B hide or €350 for a grade A. The leather is also pretty thick, between 2.1-2.4mm, which would be fine if I had a splitter but I do not.
Thanks in advance for your your advice.

Also A.A.Crack as a leathet distributor has a splitting service. their stock is HUGE. No Carriat tho. 😬
Oh! Perfect! They are really a customer friendly atelier. I’ve worked with them for over 10years
Hi Jose,
You can get bull calf from tannerie Carriat. They sell single skins and the prices are quite good. Hermes uses their skins for lots of bags.
Weinheimer and Perlinger are good for Togo leathers but I think you need some minimums.
If you message Carriat they can tell you the colors in stock to choose from.
All these skins come in at around 2.2/2.4mm thick but if you have a skiving machine you can split down the cut panels for your bag yourself without any problem. thats what i do.
