Leather is one of the few materials – much like denim – that looks better with a bit of use & wear. It’s a great material for use in the home. It’s warm tactile and beautiful. We’ve blogged before about our bargain pair of vintage leather club chairs – one of our best buys ever!

We also have a leather sofa – essential when you have a big (often muddy) dog who thinks it’s his own personal piece of furniture. A fabric-covered sofa wouldn’t be able to cope with the beating!

Leather homewares – especially if it’s vintage – can be pricey. But so long as it’s kept waxed, polished, buffed and loved, it will last you a lifetime.
