Leather Upholstery

Leather is a durable upholstery and proper care will help maintain its beauty. General information and maintenance tips follow.

General Information

Leathers are sensitive to the sun and will fade over time. Avoid exposure to sunlight and use window treatments.
Don't place leather upholstery too close to heat or air conditioner vents, windows, or exterior doors since extreme temperature
variations can damage leather.
Blot spills on leather upholstery immediately with a soft, clean, dry, absorbent cloth.
Don't use soap, saddle soap, oil, all purpose cleaner, or unapproved solvents to clean your leather upholstery.
Be careful with sharp objects (keys, toys, etc). They can tear the surface of leather.

Leather Maintenance Tips

Dust leather upholstery weekly using a soft, clean cloth that is slightly dampened with water. Please don't use furniture polish
on leather.
Blot spills immediately with a soft, clean, absorbent dry cloth.
If a spill is water based, spot clean using a leather cleaner (following product directions). Clean the entire piece gently. Then
gently dry with a soft, clean cloth. Do not rub.
If a spill is oil based, blot with a dry cloth, allowing the stain to dissipate into the leather. Do not rub.
To help protect your leather upholstery from soil, stains, and cracking, you should consider applying a leather conditioner to
your furniture. If the leather upholstery isn't new, it should be cleaned before a conditioner is applied.
