Pira Couros Courses

Piracouros is a unique type of leather craft produced in Brazil utilizing the hides from the pacu, a large species of tropical freshwater fish found in the Amazon Basin. The leather artisans in Brazil use the skin of the pacu fish to produce colorful, durable, and beautifully decorative wallets, belts, bags and other leather accessories. The process of tanning and creating these products is done entirely by hand, and the results are nothing short of stunning - bold colors, intricate patterns and designs, and a robust durability that can last for many years. The manufacturers of pira couro create their products in an environmentally-friendly manner, and they are proud of the fact that no animal is ever harmed in the process. The pacu fish used in this process are a wild caught species and are collected only after they have been dead for some time. In addition, the materials used in these leather crafts are eco-friendly and designed to last for years. Piracouros are not only durable and fashionable, but they are also highly sought-after for their ability to represent the rich cultural heritage of Brazil. With its vibrant colors, unique patterns, and strong durability, pira couros are truly a one of a kind work of art.
