Bonded leather

This may be made from a combination of materials: leather fibres and bonding resin, and – with inferior grades – sometimes other materials such as card and paper. The materials used will determine appearance and longevity: not all Bible bindings described as ‘bonded leather’ will be of equal quality.

Cambridge Bibles in this category use the best quality material available: bonded leather made from 100% cowhide leather fibres recycled and reconstituted with a strong resin bonding.
