Leather furniture is an investment which adds a touch of luxury and elegance to your home or office, and as such, needs to be correctly cared for to ensure its long-lasting durability. As with any soft furnishings, leather can accumulate dirt, oils, and allergens over time which dulls its appearance and causes lasting damage if not properly treated. Made from natural materials by tanning animal hide, leather is a porous textile which easily absorbs liquids and oils deteriorating and discolouring the fabric, often causing a hardened, cracked appearance.
While it may be tempting to grab a damp cloth and give your furniture a quick scrub; it’s important to remember that different types of leather have different requirements. Naturally treated leather requires frequent attention, for example; while suede needs specialised care. Pigmented leathers, however, are somewhat more durable requiring a little less maintenance…
How Often Should Leather Furniture Be Cleaned?
Most leather furniture manufacturers agree that regular and consistent maintenance and cleaning is essential to the longevity of your investment.
Specific care instruction are usually provided by manufacturers, but a general guideline for ongoing maintenance is:
– Gently dust your furniture weekly with a soft microfibre cloth to prevent build-up within the fibres
– Dry spills as soon as possible with a soft absorbent cloth or towelling to stop liquids seeping into the fabric
– Deep clean and condition your leather furniture every 6 – 12 months for best results and at least every 24 months to prevent discolouration and cracking

Deep cleaning leather furniture correctly is time-consuming and labour-intensive requiring several steps to ensure a thorough clean without damaging the fabric.

Finally, the fabric needs to have leather conditioner carefully applied to restore lustre and protect the material.
