One of the beauties of leather is that no two cowhides are exactly alike
It takes, on average, three hides to upholster a sofa
It is important to understand the differences between the leathers
It is also important to understand that one leather is not better than the other, just different
Each leather appeals to a different customer and each with proper care will provide years of durability
Corrected Grain Leather
• Corrected grain refers to leather that has had its surface altered to remove unwanted blemishes and scars
• Corrected grain leathers are lightly buffed or sanded
• The depth of this sanding is so slight that durability and strength is unaffected
• Corrected grain leathers are just as strong as full grain
• The buffing reduces that amount of visible blemishes
• If the entire grain is removed by sanding, a new grain pattern must be embossed on to the surface regardless of the amount of buffing
• They tend not to be as soft and supple as their full grain counterparts.
Full Grain Leather
• A full grain leather, on the other hand, is left with all of its natural markings intact
• Full grain leather wears its natural markings not as defects, but rather as genuine proof of its authenticity
• Less than 10% of all hides are judged select enough to remain full grain this makes the price much higher than the common hides which will need to be corrected
• Full grain leather is natural and wears its signature with pride
