Purses and Bags
-
A handbag, wallet, or any type of purse made from full-grain leather makes an excellent gift for men and women alike. Full-grain leather is hard-wearing and strong, meaning the bag will be long-lasting. The purse or bag will also develop a classic worn-in look over time, improving its appearance with age. For the traveler, look for a compact leather suitcase. Consider a briefcase or laptop case for the executive in your life. If you don't want to spend that much, choose a coin purse.
Book
-
Bookstores and stationary stores often stock a range of journals and photo albums. Look for one bound in full-grain leather for a gift suitable for many different people. A leather-bound journal makes a thoughtful gift for a writer or traveler; a photo album is a great idea for family members.

Gloves
-
If you want a smaller gift for someone who lives in a cold climate, look for full-grain leather gloves or mittens with a warm lining. The thickness of full-grain leather makes it a good insulator, so the gloves or mittens will be extremely warm. This is also a suitable idea for a gift you are going to send through the mail, since gloves are small and relatively lightweight.
Tool Belt
-
For the man in your life who loves DIY, consider a full-grain leather tool belt. The distressed, worn-in look that full-grain leather develops over time is perfect for a tool belt. The thick, sturdy leather holds tools safely and protects the wearer from sharp points. Unlike tool belts made from canvas or nylon, a leather tool belt will not quickly wear out with use.
Jewelry Box
-
A jewelry box covered with full-grain leather is a useful and stylish gift that is sure to be treasured by any woman receiving it. Leather jewelry boxes are generally of a high quality and come in many different sizes. A less expensive alternative is a jewelry roll made from full-grain leather. This is handy when traveling and for storing jewelry in a safe place.
