ODE to Box Calf

I was just at FSH and I showed the craftsman there the scratches on my box Kelly wallet (I threw my wallet into my bag, not realizing I had KEYS in there). He recommended a leather cream for delicate leather from the John Lobb store just next to his counter... I got a tub of that and will be attempting a rescue of my wallet... So this time round I copped out (don't hit me, box fans!) and got a Togo Birkin instead (but my SA told me to continue working up courage cos, in his words, "box is the best leather")... Maybe next time!
 
I love this thread, so much eye candy!

Here's a recent picture of my now 8 year old raisin box Birkin, affectionately known as Miss Prunella.

I try to avoid carrying it if it looks like it might rain but otherwise I try to take it out and use it regularly.

Beautiful collection in box robee - and thank you for sharing and reminding me of just how much I love the shape of the 20cm - just perfect.

HY congratulations on the MC wallet - blue box regardless of shade is divine. Hope you BB dreams come true soon.

Loony (very silly - but couldn't resist!)

Dear Steakfrite that what crafts people are for and they can work wonders - wrap it up in a blanket and carry it carefully to your nearest H tomorrow morning!
