Leather sofas: a choice between appearance and functionality

Leather sofas last a lifetime and do not follow the current fashion.

Here are the proposals by Borzalino.

They last a lifetime. They ensure maximum comfort and an elegant look. We are talking about the leather sofas, a timeless furniture which does not follow fashion. They are perfect both for classic houses and for modern interiors; leather sofas can adapt to any style and location. From traditional capitonné models to cleaner and more minimal lines, from natural colours to the brightest shades, there are endless choices.

What makes leather sofas be unique

Whether it is a majestic Chesterfield or a modern sofa, a leather sofa will be a guarantee of exclusivity, always and no matter what. They are manufactured with sartorial care and a specific attention to details; in fact, they are almost always synonymous of artisanship.

Moreover, leather sofas have an extraordinary tactile performance and a timeless charm. Leather is, in fact, a material which is soft to the touch and gives a unique warmth to any location. And, as we said, it lasts a lifetime. Because it is a living material which changes over the time, but with ageing it becomes more and more beautiful and acquires a unique charm. Provided that it is handled in the right way.

How to keep leather sofas in good conditions

In any case, if you want to keep a leather sofa in good conditions, it is necessary to handle it with care. For example, you should place it far from sources of light and of heat to prevent leather from hardening. You should clean it exclusively with natural and non-aggressive detergents or with specific products suggested by the manufacturing companies.

Having said that, it goes without saying that not all leather sofas ensure the same quality. The type of leather, finishing and tanning make the difference. This is the reason why when you buy it, it is essential to rely on companies making use of first choice materials.
