I have a friend who would like to get a source (preferably a photo or a
title of a book) on leather boxes from the period of the Hundred Years War,
or thereabouts.

He's been tooling leather for about a year now, and he's getting ambitious. 
He wants to be able to make the box as well.

Does anyone have practical advice of box construction and the covering
thereof with leather?  If he can't get information on a period method of
construction he'll give a modern one a try.

thanks.
