The proper term may be “enleatherned”.

Very nice work!

Impressive, James.  Most impressive is the stitching on those beautifully squared corners.  Not easy to do. Would love to see a tutorial on how you did those corners.

Wonderful box and

I love the term "leathern".

I often wonder why modern folks never use "wooden" as an adjective anymore.  They all use "wood" in the place of "wooden" and can be the source of confusion. I -knew- when I opened this thread, that'd I'd find a box made of leather, thanks. I now have a handy new adjective in my inventory.
