White in leatherette, specifically
The only genuinely practical white. It wipes, it holds a true white rather than drifting warm, and it repeats across runs. If a brand is committed to white, this is the material that makes it workable.
What white does for the piece
White throws light back at the piece, which lifts diamonds and pale stones and makes a small piece read larger than a dark ground does. It suits bridal and contemporary ranges.
What white shows
Everything — hand oils, denim transfer, the mark of a shelf edge. A white box on an open counter has a working life measured in weeks.
Which metals and stones white suits
Diamonds, pale stones and bridal. It is a poor ground for anything warm or antique, which it makes look like a reproduction.
Why leatherette (pu)
Leatherette is a polyurethane skin over a woven backing. It gives the grain and the weight of leather at a consistent colour, batch to batch — which matters when a jeweller is reordering a house box for years.
Putting your logo on leatherette (pu)
Leatherette is the most forgiving surface for a logo. Hot-stamp, blind deboss and metal plate all sit well on it, and a fine typeface holds its detail.
Cutting the interior in leatherette (pu)
The skin is wrapped over a rigid shell, so corners stay square and the lid closes on a defined line rather than a soft one.
Wipe with a barely damp cloth. Avoid solvent cleaners, which can lift the surface.
