    I cannot speak to the chemistry of how silver reacts with leather.
    However, a couple of years back, I had a conversation with an
    executive of the Cross Pen Company (located in Lincoln, RI, USA)
    about this subject. 

    At that time she told me that it had been extremely difficult, in
    fact involving a worldwide search, to get leather for pen cases that
    would not tarnish their sterling silver pens.
