Yes, leather is a more expensive upholstery, but it is long lasting and over time, an excellent investment, looking wonderful for many years to come. Enjoy leather seating – whether barstools, sofas or chairs - settling down with a favorite book, listening to some soothing music, or simply closing your eyes, letting your mind drift and your body unwind. All of these events combine to give each hide a distinct character that adds to the beauty of your furniture. Real leather is a natural substance and like all organic materials, leather hides vary in beauty and integrity. All sorts of influences can affect their look and texture - genetics, environment, and the handling of the hide.
