Light gold box calf belt, embellished with an art deco palladium (silver) buckle in a satin finish. This belt is custom-made and entirely hand sewn in saddle stitch using natural linen thread. The lining of this belt is made in black grained calf. Belt width measures 40 mm.

Skin

Your Duret Paris box calf belt is crafted from extremely high-quality calfskin. A belt made from box such as this has a smooth and firm appearance, with a full grain. The tanning technique that achieves such beautiful leather involves using chrome or chrome salt. A bluish-gray color along its edges shows the presence of chrome, unlike many vegetable-tanned leathers. This premium leather is very smooth and has a fine, supple texture, although small marks or grains may occasionally appear. Box calf leather is highly prized by the most upscale brands for all their leather goods and fashion collections. Its combination of fineness and resistance make box calf one of our favorites to work with at Duret Paris.

Color

Your belt in brown box calf was crafted with the traditional saddlery and leathercrafting know-how of Duret Paris. We have been bringing our exacting quality, subtle style, and eye for perfection to our unique and authentic leather goods for over 25 years. The quality of our leathers and skins is paramount to us, since they will be the cornerstone of the belt or accessory you select. The leather of your belt or accessory will be dyed the desired color, brown, using natural pigments. A hallmark of Duret Paris, a patinated brown can also be achieved through the application of beeswax. You can pick the type of buckle that best matches your burgundy belt from our choice of gold, palladium or ruthenium finishes. Your brown leather belt is equally suited to daily wear or special occasions like a wedding or award ceremony. Whatever style you choose, your light gold box calf belt can be monogrammed with your initials – or someone else’s, if it is to be a gift.

Finish

Duret Paris belts and accessories made in suede are characterized by their natural finish. The suede finish is worked on the flesh side of the leather (the inside of the skin). It’s a material that is soft, light and velvety to the touch. Duret Paris mainly uses calfskin to craft your premium suede belt. Suede calfskin can also be enhanced by the application of a special patina.
