Finished Leather is imbued with a barrier of highly protective pigments that ward away harmful
elements. While it won't keep fluids from getting through, it will give you more time to deal with
them before they absorb. Same with any treatment given to it - cleaners and conditioners will
remain on the surface longer before absorbing, prompting some people to over-condition.
Finished leather is highly protected and easy to maintain, but it can scratch more easily, and
lacks the depth of appearance, texture and smell of natural leather, taking on uniform traits
similar to plastic. Regardless, finished leather maintains excellent quality balanced with a stylish
simplicity.
Animal Donor
Animal donors may be the single most important factor in determining leather’s temperament.
They may include cowhide, crocodile, lambskin, toad, or even shark. There are infinite varieties,
but most commonly these breeds can be pegged into three categories.
Cattle Leather is leather just like you'd expect. The most common varieties are sheepskin,
goatskin, pigskin, and ubiquitous cowhide. These leathers are fairly easy to maintain and very
forgiving, with straightforward care routines. On top of that, they're also sturdy, long-lasting,
plentiful (with an affordable price to match), and possess lovely natural qualities. There's good
reason this breed is chief of the pantheon.
