DURABILITY
It is important to bear in mind how much use your sofa will receive so that a fabric or leather suitable for your needs is selected.
All fabrics are suitable for MTO headboards, arm-caps and scatter cushions unless otherwise stated.
Take extra care with sharp objects, such as studs and belt buckles as these can snag even the toughest of fabrics.

LOOSE OR FIXED COVERS?
1. Loose covers are covers which can be removed and are available on selected items to present a more casual relaxed fit, offering versatility for cleaning and updating your look. They’re an ideal option if you have children or pets or enjoy entertaining.
2. Regular redressing will be required to keep them neat and tidy.
3. All loose covers have a 3% allowance for shrinkage (which will vary from fabric to fabric) after initial cleaning and will not fit tightly on arrival.
4. Cleaning regularly will maintain their appearance and prevent premature wear. Please follow the care label sewn into the cover.
5. Fixed covers are permanently attached to the frame and are more tailored they can be professionally cleaned in situ.

SCATTER CUSHIONS
1. Available in 3 sizes which can be purchased in any upholstery fabric to add that perfect finishing touch.

NATURAL FABRIC AND LEATHER FEATURES
Leather and some fabrics have natural characteristics. Carefully consider these to select an upholstery cover perfect for you:

FABRIC
1. Many of our fabrics are made from slub yarns to achieve a natural look. Slubs and cotton seeds are a natural feature of the fabric and will not affect the life of the fabric.
2. Some of our more delicate fabrics such as velvets and deep pile chenille’s are susceptible to crushing and pressure marks which create interesting shading and features.
3. On some fabrics such as linen, pilling can occasionally occur in early stages of use, this does not indicate premature wear or an inferior fabric and is normal.

LEATHER
1. Some of our leathers have extra character with distressed and wax finishes. These create more significant variances in texture and colour, with enhanced markings under the wax.
2. Scars are a natural feature of all high quality leather and do not affect durability they may be recognised as dark lines and marks in the leather.
3. ˜Pull up where leather is pulled tight so may appear lighter, maybe evident, especially on waxed finishes and the crackle effect will vary for a truly individual look.
4. Some of our leathers have had the surface texture removed and a finish applied, giving a more uniform appearance, although characteristics may still be visible.
5. Several hides are used to cover a sofa so variation in colour and texture may occur between the different parts of a piece which will all create a sophisticated and unique effect.
