For those who fancy something truly luxurious, our real leather options within The Lledr Legacy collection offer unparalleled authenticity and enduring character. Leather is a natural product, and the uniqueness of each hide is hallmarked by organic variations such as growth marks, subtle scars, and natural grain differences. These characteristics are not defects; they add to the inherent beauty and individual story of real leather.

All our hides are responsibly sourced and are, by nature, a by-product of the food industry. We proudly upcycle this natural substance, transforming it into a long-lasting, beautiful material that would otherwise end up in landfill. Due to the natural properties of leather, slight colour and texture variations may occur between batches, enhancing the unique charm of your chair.
