A pencil box is the smallest desk.With a pencil box, wherever you are, it's possible to get some work done. It's hard to find a pencil box that doesn't get in the way but still hol ds all the things you need. Cowhide and Pressed Cotton fabric. Handmade in Japan. 21.3 x 9.3 x 3 cm / 8.4 x 3.7 x 1.2" Soft Cowhide We developed this leather for its luxurious soft touch and the way it fits the body. Aniline dyed to preserve natural color variations that are the trademark of beautiful leather. This full grain leather is uncoated creating a natural surface that's soft and supple. It will quickly get darker with use and exposure to light. Small scratches and stains blend in creating a patina that is only possible with leather. How We Dye Our Leather Variations are part of each skin, and even within the same skin. The easier way to make leather color uniform is to cover the surface with thick synthetic fillers and pigment coatings, covering the natural variations in surface and color. Unfortunately this finish does not allow scratches to blend in or improve over time. Postalco leather is colored using aniline dyes. Aniline dyes soak into the leather leaving visible the natural variation in grain and texture. The more aniline dyed leather is used, the better the surface patina gets over time. Each skin is different: a faint stripe-like pattern, called ‘tora’ in Japanese is a natural effect due to the way the dye soaks in to the various parts of the skin. Each skins ‘tora’ is different. Making Veg tanned and Aniline dyed leather is more expensive and time consuming but produces beautiful leathers. Pressed Cotton Our Pressed Cotton fabrics are PFAS-free / do not contain PFAS “forever chemicals”.This fabric is made with the same machines that were used to make tent fabric. The base color of the white threads will become more apparent and it will soften with use. To keep the natural feeling of the material we did not waterproof coat the surface. There is a light water resistant treatment. Cotton is a natural material so slubs and irregularity in the fibers are part of its character. It is possible for wrinkles to appear as well.
