Leather needs little care during normal usage, but adhering to the following simple rules will enhance the longevity of your leather and help to maintain the natural qualities for which it is renowned.

• Protect your furniture from the sun, which may dry the leather and lead to cracking. Like any upholstery material leather can also fade if exposed to direct sunlight.
• Under normal usage conditions, regular dusting and vacuum cleaning in crevices or bottoms is all that is necessary to clean your furniture.
• The use of a good leather conditioner is recommended every 6 to 12 months.

If your leather becomes dirty try the following to restore it to its natural beauty.

However, before doing any of the following try the cleaning method on a small part of your leather on a part of the surface that is less visible.

If it is not possible to remove the mark with the first attempt we recommend that you consult a leather cleaning professional.

For Spots and Spills - blot excess liquid immediately with a clean absorbent cloth or sponge. If necessary, use clear, lukewarm water and gently wipe the spill. Pat dry with a clean towel and allow to air dry. If water is used, clean the entire area where the spill occurred. For example, the entire seat cushion or entire arm. Do not dry wet areas with hair dryers, etc.

For Stubborn Spots and Stains - use a mild solution of soap and clear, lukewarm water. 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 and then leave it alone. The spot should disappear into the leather in a short period of time. Do not apply water to try to wash an oily spot. Do Not Use saddle soaps, oils, abrasive cleaners, soaps, furniture polish, oils, varnish or ammonia water on relatively new leather. The leather has already been permanently preserved in the tanning process and needs no maintenance other than the simple cleaning recommended above. i.e. regular dusting and periodic use of a good quality leather conditioner.
