Description:
Barenia leather is sought after and hard to find. It will acquire the nicest patina over time. If you're looking for " perfect " skin, barenia is NOT the leather for you. Barenia is definitely NOT for the faint heart. It's an acquired taste! Unless you wear glove to handle it and just store it inside your closet, anything in barenia will NOT be perfect.
Crinoline is horsehair woven. It is very light weight and slouchy. After usage, it will have broken strands giving you spiky touch.
This bolide is in Average Used Condition. Outside it looks good. Barenia leather show fingernail scratches, smudges, marks, etc, which are very common and normal. Some scratches and scuffing are located on the bottom corners. The Crinoline portion is in good condition without major broken strands. Inside is lined with barenia leather and toile fabric, which is clean without stains. Handles is darken from handling. This Bolide looks beautiful and functionally solid and sound. :)
