Aniline Leather
Aniline leather is made with aniline dyes that produce a unique color patina across the hide and allow for the natural characteristics of the leather to remain visible. Semi-aniline leather will have a very fine layer of pigment added to help "balance out' the color and provide greater durability. Aniline leather is highly valued because of its natural appearance which cannot be replicated with pigments alone. Today, semi-anilines dominate the high-end upholstery market by offering richness and depth of color along with the durability required for high-use applications. Here you will find our beautiful aniline and semi-aniline leathers for upholstery. The majority of these items are finished in Italy which is known for producing some of the finest leathers in the world.

Restoration Italia
The Restorations evoke a time when leather finishing was done by the hands of master craftsmen. This full aniline dyed leather has a deep and rich patina (color). Because aniline dyes are absorbed differently across the hide, the color has "depth" as slight variations in tones create a stunning, timeless look.

Restoration Distress
For our Restoration Distress version, we took our stunning Restorations and milled them in a large wooden drum. The milling releases some of the oil and waxes in the leather creating burst of lighter tones across the hide. This "pull up" or distress effect is often associated with a classic vintage look but is also commonly used in modern pieces.
