Luxurious Leather

EVERYONE IS LOVING LEATHER! "According to The Times newspaper, more and more people are choosing leather sofas as they become the hottest thing in interior design. Apparently leather is becoming as commonplace on the retail scene as it is in high-end bachelor pads. The paper claims that leather is the material of choice for both high end designers – and the majority of retail shoppers." (mydeco)

An upholstery buyer says: “This is a real trend, because these are established sofas; it’s not just because we’ve launched something new. This is a very big increase. Last week leather sofas accounted for 52 per cent of all upholstery sales.” (Daniel Cooper)
