Clean Codes

S Clean with pure Petroleum Distillate-Based Solvents only. Water-based or detergent-based solvent cleaners may cause excessive shrinkage. Water stains may become permanent.

SW Clean with either water-based cleaning agents, foam, or pure Petroleum Distillate-Based solvents.

W Clean with water-based cleaning agents or foam to remove overall soil.

We recommend testing any cleaner on a hidden area of the furniture before cleaning the actual spot. If improperly used, some cleaners may leave a residue, water mark, or may be harmful to the color and life of a fabric.

We do not recommend using any aftermarket treatment or protector. Fabric mills will not warranty any fabrics found to have aftermarket treatments applied.


Other leather notes:

*Faux Fat Lines or Wrinkles: intentionally included in this leather to mimic the look of pure aniline while maintaining the consistent coloration and protection of pigmented leather

*Crackled in nature is a random effect that may vary from the sample and within a piece of furniture

*Care: Leather upholstery should be dusted regularly using a clean cloth with distilled water. Clean any spills immediately with mild soap and water. Blot dry. Never use wax, polish or oil leather cleaners as these may damage the surface of the leather.


Finish Types

Aniline: Sometimes referred to as Pure Aniline is the most natural method of adding color to leather where a transparent soluble dye is used. Soluble dyes soak into the hide without covering the surface with a topcoat or pigment. The dye colors the hide but still allows the grain and character of the hide to be seen. These hides are luxurious an have a soft hand. They will patina over time. There is no protective finish to aid in cleaning.

Semi-Aniline: Similar to aniline but with nominal coating that may contain pigments to provide more protection or make the color more uniform. The finish typically retains a soft hand but with the added protective coating. Scars and imperfection may still be seen but less than aniline dyed leathers. A nice balance of pigmented clean ability and color uniformity but natural luxurious hand and character of aniline.

Pigmented: Non-soluble and non-transparent pigments are used for color uniformity. Pigmented (protected) leather is used to cover imperfections or color variations and has a heavier protective top coating. It is ideal for low maintenance and cleanability in high traffic areas, kids, and pets. Pigmented finishes are bonded to the top (similar to paint) and if abused may peel. Unlike aniline leathers, pigmented leather will not patina.
