Faded Leather Couches Recoloured To Original Black
These leather couches were sent to me by a client in Dunedin.
As you can see, they look really scruffy. This is a semi-aniline leather which, put simply, is a dyed leather with a light clear sealer over the top.
When new, these are soft and supple, more so than standard finshed leathers but the downside is, the dye will fade when exposed to sunlight ... which is the case here.
Here are some photos before I got started ....
The photo above and below show how much it's faded!
The next 2 photos show what the seating area looks like before restoration work ...
And after working some magic, here's the result!
My client was absolutely tickled pink when these arrived back home. Here's what she said ...
"I can't believe they are mine! They look better than when I first bought them and I can't stop looking at them! Thank you so much!"
