Confuzzled about which Bleecker items are 'Burnished'?

[B. Jara]

I have a Bleeker Felicia (11424) in black, but the creed does not say the leather is burnished. I was looking at the Bleeker Duffle (11324) and the creed for them states it is burnished leather.

Are they both the same leather, just one states it's burnished?

The Black Felicia is natural glove tanned cowhide. It's not burnished leather. Coach 11324 I think is an Ergo bag, no?

Sorry, 11423 and 11424. The XL duffle was in 'Ink.' So they are two different leathers?

 

[guesswholala]

Yes. The Ink is burnished and the Black is glove tanned.

 

[B. Jara]

Yes. The Ink is burnished and the Black is glove tanned.

Are they both cow hide? Is the glove tanned and the burnishing two different treatments that the leather gets?

Sorry for being so technical...what started out as a simple question for me has turned into something of a leather lesson!!

While searching on Google tonight to get more info, I found an interesting business plan posted by Coach in 2000.

I'll post it in a new thread.
