Q. What is Bonded Leather?

It is not real leather, it is a man-made material consisting of 10-25 % ground up or reconstituted leather and used as a backing.  A layer of PU or polyurethane which is basically plastic and fiber is added to the top and embossed with grain to mimic real leather.

Q. What is Microfibre Fabric?

Microfibre fabric is comfortable and easy to clean, its durable weave stands up to extensive use to keeping it looking new for years of lasting beauty.

Q. What is PU Leather?

It is leather made from the inner splits of the hide and finished with a polyurethane coating. This leather is made resistant to water penetration and has a high fade resistance. For furniture in everyday use, this type of leather is great since spills and things can be easily cleaned and it is truly a user-friendly covering.

Q. What is Plush Suede?

Suede fabrics are manufactured with a brushed or napped finish, resembling suede leather. It is a trademarked term for a microfiber plush resembling the softest suede, but is more durable, and can be made resistant to liquid, stains, and crushing.  It is commonly used in upholstery and fine accessories.  Good for those who enjoy suede's texture but who prefer a non-animal product, or an easier-care fabric.

Q. What is Split?

Hides are thick. The hide is usually "split" which means that the thickness is sliced into two pieces, making nearly two sheets of leather. Split leather is the stuff they cut off of top-grain leather to get thinner leather. The split leather will have a suede-ish appearance.
