Spanish term or phrase: cuero gamuzado
El contexto es:
Bolso en cuero gamuzado en combinación de colores con forro de género estampado, bolsillo con cierre y porta celular.

Es para un catálogo de artesanías argentinas que va a ser presentado en Europa.

¿Es lo mismo 'cuero gamuzado' que 'gamuza'? ¿Puede traducirse como ‘suede leather’? Encontré que ‘suede’ se hace con la parte interior, mientras que ‘nubuck’ se hace con un tratamiento aplicado a la parte exterior. ¡Pero ni siquiera sé si ‘gamuza’ es lo mismo que ‘cuero gamuzado’! La foto que tengo del bolso es tan malo que no se ve el tipo de material...

¡Muchísimas gracias!
