Many of the hides used are left in their purest form. This means there is little or no surface treatment, allowing for the unique natural beauty of each hide to come through. It also means these pure leathers are incredibly soft to touch and will remain supple as it has not endured extra processing treatments which can make the hide stiff.
Our leather can be prone to marks and require delicate care to keep it in optimal condition. Over time, it will naturally take on a patina or soft sheen. This is the natural character brought out by regular and unique surface exposure.
The upholstery of our leather chairs and sofas should not be washed or dry cleaned.
For cleaning and care, use the Ethnicraft Leather Care Kit. Follow the directions of use for the Natural Cleaner and Leather Care & Protect formulations.
We do not recommend using Ethnicraft Natural Cleaner or Care & Protect on sanded or brushed leathers such as Nubuck or suede.
Always test colour fastness and hide resistance on a small and inconspicuous area. Compare once dry.
To avoid discolouration do not place the leather in direct sunlight.
Frequently wipe the leather down with a clean, dry cloth.
Treat spills immediately. Blot up as much of the spill as possible with a clean, dry, white cloth. Do not rub.
In case of a stain, use a clean, slightly damp white cloth, blotting from the outer edge to the centre of the stain. Do not use any chemicals or products not designed for leather.
Use a towel to evenly dry the leather. Do not use a hairdryer as it is likely to dehydrate the leather.
Dust regularly using a soft dry cloth.
For a more thorough cleaning, use mild soap and warm water. Rinse with clean water and wipe dry.
Do not use steel wool, sandpaper, mineral acid, bleach or chlorine cleaners on metal surfaces.
Do not drag the furniture along the floor, as it might damage the protective coating, cause rusting or leave permanent marks on the floor.
Always lift the furniture when moving it from place to place.
