Lightfastness: 5 (ISO scale 1-8)

The leather’s colour will gradually lighten over time. This rating indicates how quickly that happens, with 1 being the fastest and 8 the slowest.

Fastness to rubbing: dry 4, wet 3-4 (ISO 1–5)

This measures how well the leather’s colour withstands fading or transfer when rubbed, both in dry and wet conditions.

Flexing resistance: 50,000 cycles

This shows how well the leather can handle repeated bending or creasing without cracking or damage. Our leather passes 50,000 cycles – matching the benchmark of commercial durability.

• Composition: 100% protected (coated) leather, buffed and embossed for a consistent matte grain texture with a strong, durable finish.
• Thickness: 0.9–1.1 mm
• Dyed with water-based aniline to preserve the leather’s natural look.
• Our leather is free from harmful chrome VI chemicals, making it safer for you and kinder to the environment.
• Tested and certified to the OEKO-TEX® Leather Standard – free from harmful substances, responsibly produced, safe to have at home.
• Certified TVOC under ANSI/BIFMA, proving low chemical emissions for safer indoor air and thoughtful environmental and health design.
• Responsibly sourced from food industry by-products.

Durability: >100,000 Martindale
The Martindale test is the gold standard for measuring fabric durability. It works by repeatedly rubbing the material against a wool textile under a set pressure. Conducted in cycles of 5,000 circular motions, the test continues until two threads show signs of wear.
Minimum requirements:
Private and low-traffic public areas: 10,000 – 15,000 rubs
High-traffic private and office spaces: 15,000 – 25,000 rubs
Public spaces and transportation: 25,000 – 45,000 rubs

Lightfastness: >5 (ISO 1-8)
Lightfastness measures how well a fabric holds its colour when exposed to light. In testing, samples are placed under artificial daylight for a set time. The results are rated on a scale from 1 (lowest) to 8 (highest), with each step up meaning the fabric takes twice as long to fade.

Pilling: 4 (ISO 1-5)
Pilling refers to the small fibre balls, or "pills," that can form on fabric with wear. It's graded on a scale from 5 (best) to 1 (worst), with higher ratings indicating a smoother, more durable surface.

Pilling is a natural part of a fabric's life – it comes with everyday use. As a looped, organically woven fabric, chenille is prone to snagging – some loops may protrude over time. This is inherent to the weave, not a defect.

• Composition: 100% polyester
• Certified: OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100
• Colour differences may occur
• A shading effect sometimes happens when the directional pile shifts, creating visible marks as fibres reflect light differently.
• Vacuum once a week using a soft brush attachment – regular vacuuming extends the life of the fabric.

Pilling is a natural part of a fabric's life – it comes with everyday use. As a looped, organically woven fabric, bouclé is prone to snagging – some loops may protrude over time. This is inherent to the weave, not a defect.

• Composition: 80% polyester, 20% acrylic
• Certified: OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100
• Colour differences may occur
• Vacuum once a week using a soft brush attachment – regular vacuuming extends the life of the fabric.

Durability: 90,000 Martindale

• Composition: 77% acrylic, 22% polyester, 1% viscose
• Certified: OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100
• Colour differences may occur
• Vacuum only when necessary, using the lowest suction setting and a soft brush attachment. Move gently across the surface without rubbing or pressing down.
