What a men's chain box has to do
A deep channel and a keeper. A heavy curb chain has enough mass to move anything that is not held.
The moment it is opened
Frequently bought as a gift by someone who has not seen the piece, which puts weight on the exterior.
The mistake we correct most often
Underestimating the mass. A heavy curb chain has enough weight to move anything that is not physically held, and it will mark a lining doing it.
Saffiano leather on a men's chain box, specifically
A heavy chain in a saffiano channel does not polish a shine into the lining the way it does on smooth leatherette. Over a year of use that is a visible difference.
What varies between versions
A deep single channel or a coiled seat. Coiling makes a much smaller box, which matters when a chain is long.
Why saffiano leather for this
Saffiano is leather finished with a fine cross-hatch press and a protective coating. It is the most hard-wearing leather finish we use.
Putting your logo on saffiano leather
The coating means foil sits on the surface rather than sinking in, so a hot-stamp stays crisp. Deboss is shallower than on plain calf, by the nature of the finish.
Cutting the interior in saffiano leather
Wrapped over a rigid shell, with the cross-hatch running square to the box edge.
Wipe clean. It tolerates handling far better than an untreated hide.
