They hold it to the light. They lay two swatches side by side and see if the tones hold. They rub the material between their fingers and decide: this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Linen \u0026amp; Leather Sample Book is a working tool disguised as a beautiful object. It contains 22 swatches — 12 Belgian and Italian linens, 10 full-grain and aniline leathers — drawn from the textile and upholstery lines we represent at De Sousa Hughes. Each swatch is generously sized (4 x 6 inches minimum), affixed to heavy card stock, and labeled with the mill, composition, and the designer line it's available through. The book itself is case-bound in natural linen with a leather spine — made to live on a design desk for years, not months.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFor the interior designer:\u003c\/strong\u003e a portable reference you bring to client meetings when you need to say “the sofa would be this leather — feel it.”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFor the design enthusiast:\u003c\/strong\u003e a way to understand materials at the level the professionals do.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFor anyone:\u003c\/strong\u003e the most tactile object you'll own.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEdition Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sample book is updated annually.
