Shopping for a sofa?
If you are not seriously considering a leather sofa yet, you should be.
Apart from being a design classic, a leather sofa is actually a very practical choice, too.
Here’s why getting a leather sofa is a very good idea according to the team at Alpine Lounge – a leading manufacturer of state-of-the-art, high-quality customisable furniture in South Africa.
A leather sofa elevates your decor
Whether it’s a classic leather armchair, a Chesterfield sofa or a more contemporary, slim-lined model, a piece of leather furniture instantly elevates the look and feel of any decor scheme.
It’s timeless
There’s a reason leather is so popular – it is a classic upholstery choice that speaks of a rich heritage and timeless appeal. Plus, it only gets comfier with age! And while the price tag might seem a tad heftier tan fabric sofas, remember, it’s a long-term investment!
Leather sofas are completely customisable
From the style and shape to the size and colour, even the grain, homeowners have the option to completely customise their leather sofa for a unique seating solution.
It goes with any decor style
Modern or minimalist, boho or farm-style, leather upholstery fits perfectly with any decor style you might choose. Plus, it is quite adaptable too, easily transitioning from one style to another with a new scatter cushion or two.
It’s a sustainable option
A by-product of the meat industry, leather can be tanned without the use of harsh chemicals and used to upholster sofas. The durability of the hide also makes it a sustainable choice, especially as an accidental scratch or mark can only add to its natural appeal.
Leather is durable and easy to clean
In terms of upholstery materials, leather is an excellent choice: it doesn’t crack, sag or peel, and is flexible and strong. It’s resistant to tears, stains and spills, and requires little maintenance and/or cleaning, making it a great option for busy households.
It’s hypoallergenic
Leather repels dust and does not retain dust mites or pet fur, so it’s a great option for allergy sufferers.
