Use and Care Manual

Leather is a natural product that reacts differently to soil and light. The
natural surface of leather is like a landscape, with varying textures and
shadowy furrows. These distinctive features are unique to leather, a
product that has been raised rather than engineered.
No two hides will be exactly alike, as will all things in nature. Each hide
has unique characteristics – coloring, grain, and natural scars – these
scars are natural markings that will not affect the durability of the hide.
These characteristics are present in each piece of our hand crafted
leather furniture.
While our quality standards are of the highest and identical nishing
processes are applied, each piece of furniture will still be constructed
with timeless craftsmanship. We are devoted to making each handcrafted
piece of furniture with care, beauty and individuality.
GENERAL CARE
Regularly dust
To maintain the appearance of your leather product,
regularly clean to prevent dust buildup. Use a clean,
soft, slightly damp cloth to dust. Avoid from soaking
your furniture in soap, which can damage the
leather. Refrain from using cleaning products not
designed for leather as they will harm the surface.
Conditioning
To prevent your leather furniture from losing
moisture, discoloration, and developing cracks;
apply a leather conditioner one to two times a year.
They are designed to be buffered into the leather
and act as a shield against the elements that
damage leather.
Vacuum
Vacuum the seat cushions, backrest, arms, and
under the seat cushions regularly with a soft brush
attachment to remove any loose particles that could
cause your furniture to wear.
PRECAUTIONS
Effects of sunlight
Sunlight can damage leather and cause it to
fade faster than natural wear and tear. Place
furniture away from exposure sunlight. Using
window shades, blinds, or lined draperies can
prevent sun damage.
Heat sources
Extreme temperature can be dangerous to
leather furniture. Heating ducts or radiators can
damage lather causing it to crack. Cold, dry air
from air conditioning vents can also damage
the leather. Arrange furniture at least 20 inches
away from any heating or air conditioning
outlets. Temperature changes may cause the
furniture to lose its permeability.
Sharp objects
Keep sharp objects away from your leather
furniture. Objects such as keys, toys, and pets
with sharp claws can scratch, tear, and puncture
the surface of your leather furniture.
Recliners
Your new item may appear to be tight and
require extra exertion when closing the recliner.
Over more frequent use and item break in, the
mechanism will loosen up and become easier to
close over time.
Spills and stains
As careful as we all are, accidents do still
happen. Some spills may be as easy as wiping
it up quickly, others may penetrate the leather
in seconds. Most spill will reduce likelihood of
damage by fast actions.
