Overview
Lincoln is a crackled and distressed aniline hide that has been tanned with a combination of oils & waxes to provide an aged look with a slight pull-up effect.
Low resistance durability, with cracked/distressed pull-up grain. Hides originate from the USA & Europe.
Average thickness: 0.9mm-1.1mm
Care information:
To give you years of enjoyment from your leather please observe the following:
Avoid exposing your leather to direct sunlight or direct heat.
Avoid sharp objects such as studs, buckles & zips coming into contact with the leather.
Dust and vacuum your leather regularly
Spills should be blotted immediately with an absorbent dry cloth. Do not rub.
Leather these days do not need to be fed and the use of saddle soap or wax polishes should be avoided, especially spray polishes.
Use of general household cleaning products, chemicals and abrasives are not recommended as they can breakdown the protective surface and cause damage.
Do not use any method or product not recommended by the manufacturer.
ANILINE (ADVICE & DISCLAIMER):
All aniline leathers are delicate and sensitive hides that are dyed through. Some aniline leathers may have no protective coating at all yet others may have only a light surface finish/protection leaving a very natural feel and appearance but are also more vulnerable to marking, scratching and fading. The surface coating, if it has one, is not pigmented in any way. Nature’s markings are part of the appeal of this type of leather and should be appreciated. Healed scars, bug bites, neck & belly wrinkles all contribute to the character of these very elegant leathers. Colour variation is a natural characteristic of any aniline leather and colours will vary from hide to hide and dye-lot to dye-lot. When pulled, stretched or used in tightly upholstered applications, expect the colour and sheen to vary on pull-up and distressed leathers. Anilines are not as colourfast as pigmented hides. Prolonged exposure to light and heat will cause aniline leathers to fade. A more careful maintenance and understanding of this type of leather is required by the customer to ensure that the leather is fit for purpose. Please check that an aniline leather will be suitable for your requirements.
FOR ALL ANILINE ORDERS – As a standard procedure, we strongly recommend that we send you a “Cutting for Approval” (CFA) upon order and before shipment as our current stock may vary in colour, texture, sheen and finish from the samples you have seen or received. No return of leather will be accepted for dye-lot variances if a CFA was declined.
Leather is a 100% natural product. Each hide is truly unique and individual bearing the distinctive marks and characteristics of its natural origin which will vary from hide to hide. These are its beauty and give leather its authenticity, luxurious good looks, style, comfort and will develop a patina over time.
