Paua shell (abalone) and shagreen necklace
Galuchat, meaning sharkskin or stingray skin was named after Louis XV’s master leather artisan, Jean-Claude Galuchat, who was the first in France to use rare and mysterious material. This exotic skin was used to manufacture luxurious items.
The first signs of this alluring textile dates back to 8th century Japan, where it was used for breastplates, sheaths, and the handles on swords.
