The Timeless Beauty and Durability of Real Leather Furniture - Why Boston Mills is the Best Choice
At Boston Mills, we are passionate about crafting high-quality furniture that is built to last. That's why we only use 100% real high-grade top or full-grain leather in all of our pieces. We believe that genuine leather is the ultimate luxury material, and it only gets better with time.
The Unique Beauty of Leather
Just like a fine wine or cheese, natural leather is known for its ability to age gracefully. The unique markings on the surface, such as bites, scars, burns, or scrapes, are not flaws, but rather individual imperfections that speak to the uniqueness of the animal hide. These wrinkles and marks add character and depth to the leather, making each piece truly one-of-a-kind. Leather also has a unique natural scent that can be described as earthy and warm, which is often a desirable characteristic. Additionally, the way that leather is tanned and finished can also affect its appearance, durability, and feel.
Durability and Comfort
But the benefits of leather go far beyond its aesthetic appeal. Leather is also incredibly durable and long-lasting, making it the perfect upholstery choice for furniture. Unlike fabric, it doesn't wear out or fade over time. Instead, it softens and becomes even more flexible, molding to the shape of your body for ultimate comfort. This makes it perfect for high-use areas of your home such as living rooms, family rooms, and home offices.
Leather is Hypoallergenic
High-grade leather is also breathable, absorbing and releasing moisture to ensure a comfortable feel. And it doesn't retain dust, allergens, and pet dander like fabric does, making it a more hypoallergenic option for upholstered furniture. This is especially important for people who suffer from allergies or asthma, as it can help to reduce the symptoms.
Easy to Clean and Maintain
Taking care of your leather furniture is essential to maintaining its beauty and longevity. Leather requires very little maintenance, compared to other materials. The natural oils and fats in the hide will keep the leather supple and protected. A simple wipe down with a damp cloth is often enough to keep it clean, and occasional conditioning with a leather conditioner will keep it supple. Unlike fabrics, leather does not absorb liquids as easily, making spills and stains much less of a problem.
Leather Care
Of course, with regular use, your leather furniture may need more than a simple wipe down. That's why we've created a Leather Care section on our website, under Care & Maintenance, to provide specific instructions for cleaning and conditioning your leather. With a little bit of TLC, your leather furniture will continue to look and feel like new for many years to come.
Leather Furniture - An Investment Piece
When you purchase leather furniture, you're making an investment in a piece that will last for many years to come. Leather furniture may be more expensive than fabric furniture, but it is worth the investment. Not only is it more durable and long-lasting, but it also increases in value over time. As leather ages, it develops a patina, which is a unique, weathered appearance that adds to its charm and character.
