Scales and Finishes

Over the years, Nova Kaeru has developed a diverse range of scales, each carefully designed to meet various design and functionality needs. Our scales are available in three distinct finishes: matte, semi-shine, and shine, each imparting unique characteristics that enhance the leather’s natural texture and beauty. The right choice of finish can completely transform the appearance and feel of the material, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, from fashion to interior design and architecture.

Trimmed Scales


The trimmed scales present a smooth, uniform surface, highlighting the natural softness of the leather and creating a symmetrical and elegant pattern. Due to its versatile nature, it is a well-established choice in the fashion industry, suitable for various fashion items and accessories.



Highlighted Scales


The highlighted scales visually emphasize the pirarucu’s scales, creating a striking three-dimensional texture. This type of scale is also the most natural form of pirarucu leather, enhancing the depth and details of the material. Highlighted scales are ideal for applications that seek a visually impactful element while preserving the authenticity and natural beauty of the pirarucu.

Inverted Scales


This type of scale works with the pirarucu’s scales in an inverted manner, creating a distinct and innovative appearance. The inverted scales offer a fresh perspective on the leather’s texture, highlighting each detail in an original and sophisticated way. This finish is ideal for projects seeking a unique look while maintaining the essence of pirarucu leather.
