Do you know what you can compare the combination of woolen pants and heels with for the same, to put it mildly, low level of compatibility? With a good book in a poor-quality leather binding. When the book itself is good and the pages are made of high-quality paper, but the leather is a cheap fake. And if someone goes out in an unsuccessful image, then only good taste will suffer. Whereas problems with the leather cover of a book, under unfavorable circumstances, can literally kill the publication or even harm your health.
But let's take a closer look at the problems of poor-quality leather, which is usually made of synthetic materials, or they arise due to poor processing of genuine leather:
• if high-quality genuine leather is like wine and only gets better with age, then poor-quality leather eventually begins to peel, crack and crumble;
• due to shoddy processing of the leather, it gradually loses its color and can even stain furniture, clothes or hands, depending on what the book has been in contact with;
• a book in a high-quality leather binding will be pleasant not only to the touch, but also to the smell, while improperly processed or simply cheap leather will repel you from the first breath, no matter how good the book itself is;
• if you store a book in a poor-quality design in the sun or in heat, the leather will begin to wrinkle;
• if the book is glued with poor-quality glue, it will inevitably swell or simply come unglued. And this, not to mention the aroma that this glue can emit.

Seeing so many problems that can arise if you buy a book with a poor-quality leather binding, it is logical to move on to the question: how to figure out if it is genuine leather or a low-quality substitute? There are several ways to check that will reveal the authenticity of the leather:
1. Put your hand on the leather cover of the book. After a while you will feel the warmth that the book gives you back;
2. Drop a little water on your skin. After a while the moisture should be absorbed.
3. Genuine leather can even withstand a test of fire! It does not burn in the usual sense of the word and does not even melt, but rather barely smolders.
4. Synthetics look and feel perfect and smooth, while genuine leather tends to have irregularities and some minor flaws.
