<p>[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 937595, member: 33"]Reading about the treatment of leather, it appears that embossing is when the imprints are raised above the surface, and debossing it when the imprint is pushed down into the surface. According to what I've seen online, the leather padded tops on desks are done with the debossing method, but everybody calls it embossing anyway. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
