Taking Care of Leather

Because leathers remain as natural as possible, they breathe. The process of absorbing moisture, then drying - or breathing - is what allows a natural leather product to age so gracefully and always be comfortable.

Under normal usage conditions, regular dusting and vacuum cleaning in crevices or bottoms is all that is necessary to clean your furniture but do remember that exposure to excessive sun light and heat or extremely dry rooms may cause the leather to fade or lose its soft, supple hand. Just draw the drapes or add humidity to the room.

The following instructions are suggested for cleaning during special circumstances.

For Spots and Spills. Wipe excess liquid up IMMEDIATELY with a clean, absorbent cloth or sponge. If necessary, use clean, luke warm water only and let air dry naturally. If water is used, clean the entire area where the spot occurred. An example would be the entire seat cushion or entire arm. DO NOT dry wet areas with hair dryers, etc.

For Stubborn Spots and Stains. Use a mild NON-DETERGENT soap solution. Apply the soap to a clean, wet sponge and wash then rinse well. Let air dry naturally.

For Butter, Oil or Grease. Wipe excess butter, oil or grease off the leather with a clean, dry cloth, then leave it alone as the spot should dissipate into the leather in a short period of time. Do not apply water or try to wash such spots.

DO NOT USE. Saddle soap, cleaning solvents, furniture polish, oils, varnish, abrasive cleaners, detergent soaps or ammonia water.

Note: These are recommended or suggested methods of cleaning, but the manufacturer is not responsible for damage incurred while cleaning.

ALWAYS TRY THE CLEANING METHODS IN A HIDDEN AREA FIRST TO CONVINCE YOURSELF OF THE RESULTS.
