[daśkłó]

Dla osób zainteresowanych i władającyh językiem angielskim znalazłem niezły glosariusz wyrażeń związanych ze skórami, który sporo mi ''rozjaśnił''. Piszą np.:

Full Grain:
Leather bearing the original grain surface as exposed by removal of the epidermis, and with none of the surface removed by buffing, snuffing or splitting. In contrast see ''corrected grain''.

Nubuck:
Cattle hide leather buffed on the grain side to give a velvety surface; white or coloured.

Split Hide (see Hide Split):
(1) The outer (hair or grain) layer of a hide from which the under or flesh side has been split to give it a reasonably uniform thickness. (2) Leather made from (1). Originally vegetable or combination tanned, now also chrome tanned. The leather is dressed according to the purpose required, e.g. upholstery, luggage, bags.

Suede:
(1) Velvet-like nap finish produced on leather by abrasive action.
(2) Leather whose wearing surface has been finished to have a velvet-like nap.
