Wipe with a soft dry cloth and keep the leather away from prolonged moisture.

A closer look
This briefcase is a modern interpretation of the classic Dulles silhouette, equally suited to a doctor's bag or a lawyer's case, and it is built from imported Italian Buttero vegetable-tanned cowhide, a full-grain leather numbered as item A35h, style version A. The exterior carries a deep, saturated chocolate brown with subtle pull-up variation: where the panels curve or bear tension at the gussets, the tone lightens toward a warm russet-amber, while protected areas stay near espresso. The surface is a low-satin, slightly waxy matte with a faint sheen where light grazes the broad flat panels, and the natural grain is fine and tight, showing faint hide markings and a few light scuffs that attest to an unfinished, characterful aniline surface rather than a plastic coating.
In measured terms, the case stands 35 cm wide with a substantial 13 cm depth at the base, and the revised pattern gives the body a noticeably more three-dimensional, rounded profile, dropping the boxy bulk that thick-depth briefcases usually carry. The top opening is engineered to spread to the full width of the body, so the mouth equals the 35 cm panel width rather than narrowing inward, and the two side gussets fold in a deep accordion pleat that lets the case expand flat when open and cinch closed without bulging. The front and back panels are single unbroken pieces with softly radiused lower corners, and the base is a flat, structured rectangle that lets the case stand upright unsupported.
Construction is heavy-duty hand saddle stitching in a contrasting tan-orange waxed thread, running in even, tight rows along every structural edge: the panel perimeters, the gusset seams, the handle wraps, and the top frame binding. The stitching density is consistent and slanted in the traditional saddle-stitch manner, and edges are finished with a dark burnished and painted coating that seals the leather lamination and gives a clean, glossy rounded profile. Solid brass hardware is used throughout in a restrained, simplified arrangement: a substantial rectangular turn-lock clasp centered at the top, paired D-rings flanking the handle for strap attachment, small dome-head brass rivets reinforcing the gusset tabs and handle anchors, and a series of brass eyelets or grommets set along the inner top frame where the lining is secured.
The handle is a rolled, padded leather grip, wrapped
