leather bound
Classic book binding
Leather bound describes a book with covers made of leather, suggesting quality, tradition, or permanence.
Leather-bound volumes evoke libraries, classic literature, and careful preservation: a leather-bound edition of Shakespeare, leather-bound journals.
The term sometimes appears figuratively to suggest old-fashioned formality or scholarly gravitas.
