Questions About 1950s Leather Bag
  • 1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023
    The toughest leather bag is generally one made out of full-grain leather. Taken from the outermost portion of the grain and not sanded or buffed, full-grain leather is a strong, durable material that still has a supple feel and an attractive appearance. Bear in mind that craftsmanship also affects how tough a bag is, so the durability of full-grain leather pieces can vary. On 1stDibs, shop a wide variety of leather bags.

    Genuine leather handbags are bags made from materials derived from animal hides. Calfskin and cow leathers are the most common, but you can also find handbags fashioned out of other types of leather, like goat, lamb, ostrich and crocodile. Bags also differ in terms of the types of leather they feature. Full-grain leather is unsanded, untreated leather that comes from the outermost portion of the hide, while top-grain leather is leather from the top of the hide that has been sanded and buffed to make it smoother. Explore a wide range of leather handbags on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023
