Real Leather

Leather is a durable, natural material made from animal skin that has been treated through a process called tanning to preserve it and make it suitable for various applications like clothing, footwear, and furniture. 

  • Types of Leather: There are various types of leather, including full-grain, top-grain, and bonded leather, each with different qualities and characteristics

  • Tanning Process: The tanning process uses chemicals to prevent the skin from decomposing and makes it pliable and durable

  • Durability and Versatility: Leather is known for its durability, water resistance, and ability to be engineered for various purposes and forms.

Cleaning:

  • Regular Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away dust and dirt regularly.

  • Spot Cleaning: For stubborn stains, gently clean with a mild soap solution (soap flakes and warm water) and a soft cloth.

  • Avoid Soaking: Do not soak leather or use harsh chemicals, as this can damage it.

  • Drying: If leather gets wet, blot it with a clean, dry cloth and allow it to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.

  • Steam Cleaning: Consider using a steam cleaner to disinfect and remove buildup.

Regular Conditioning:

Apply a leather conditioner every 3-6 months (or more frequently if the leather is exposed to harsh conditions) to maintain its suppleness and prevent cracking.


Protection:

  • Sunlight and Heat: Protect leather from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and heat, as this can cause it to dry out and crack.
