LEATHER PLACEMENT
"A" Areas
The most visible areas on the piece and areas that are most likely to come in contact with the user (seat and back cushions, arm tops, etc.)
Premium portions of the hides are used
Small scars that are completely healed-over will be used
Neck and flank wrinkles are acceptable
"B" Areas
The areas that are seen but not normally touched by the user (outarms, outbacks, etc.)
Moderate portions of the hides are used
Larger healed over scars will be used
Neck and flank wrinkles more prevalent
Small, finished over brands are acceptable
"C" Areas
The areas not normally seen or touched by the user (cushion reverses etc.)
Lower selection portions of the hides are used
Large rough areas and imperfections are acceptable
Heavy shade and grain variations are acceptable
Aniline (A) and Nubuk (N) leathers will exhibit more natural markings, and shade and grain variations than Finished (F) leathers.
Please Note:
The above guidelines do not apply to Married Cover Leathers. These leathers arrive to our factories pre-cut so we are not able to control the placement of natural markings.
