Why is it called box leather?
1 Answer
Box leather is called that because of the person who made the material famous. English shoemaker Joseph Box gets credit for introducing chrome-tanned calfskin leather to the world during the late 19th century. Today, the leather is best known for being a favorite material of the French luxury fashion house of Hermès. Find a collection of Hermès bags on 1stDibs.
