Durham is a beautiful distinctive leather with a two tone (tipped) finish. A resilient coating has been applied to help prevent soiling and scratching making it ideal for domestic upholstery and contract environments making it a favourite for manufacturers and specifiers alike. The distinctive qualities of this leather along with the two tone finish are its smooth silky hand feel and natural characteristics across the surface of the hide.
Classed as pigmented it is suitable for residential, general contract and auto/marine applications. The large clean hides are specially selected to achieve very good cutting yield.

Care Instructions
- Vacuum and dust frequently with a soft cloth
- Do not allow body oils, alcohol-based sanitizers, perspiration or hair products to settle into the grain of the Leather as these will gradually break down the finish

- If necessary, add a little soapy water to the above process providing NO DETERGENTS are used
- NEVER USE SADDLE SOAP, WAX OR SPRAY POLISH WHICH MAY CAUSE IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE
- For rare, awkward stains a wide range of proprietary Leather Care cleaners can be obtained, following closely the manufacturers’ instructions
- After cleaning a neutral Leather Cream may be used to restore the original sheen (proprietary products only, please)
- Too frequent or over-enthusiastic cleaning or application of Leather Cream may wear away the upper, darker coat to reveal more of the lighter base coat
