Just returned from the mothership with a view to buying a bag in box.
SA informed that it is hard to come by box leather these days as the leather quality is deteriorating, thus it is more difficult to get a large bag made in box. Even if box is available, they only make brown or black, but not rouge H or indigo or other light colors anymore. Seems like box is equally hard to get like barenia now.
My SA suggested me to take Tadelakt. I read groupie leather book and also found Tadelakt there. I need more expert advice here (thanks in advanced).
Besides Tadelakt is more 'matte' than box, does it have the same characteristic as box leather, eg. will it develop a nice patina like Box does? After spa treatment, can tadelakt look like new the way that box does?
What other difference between tadelakt and box?
THANK YOU ALL.
