Mid-century sofas

Mid-century sofas come with clean lines, a minimalist look, and a sleek design. It’s a look that came from the 1930's - 1960's, one that had a big focus on function and practicality. Mid-century sofas usually have a low profile with angled and tapered legs. Upholstery from the period is often tufted, especially with pulled button or pulled stitch detailing.

What is semi-aniline leather?

Semi-aniline leather is a premium type of leather made from high-quality hides. It is dyed through to enhance colour, then finished with a light protective coating. This allows the natural grain and softness of the leather to remain visible, while making it more practical for everyday use.

How is semi-aniline leather different from other types of leather?

There are three main types of leather commonly used in furniture:

Aniline leather: This is dyed without a protective surface finish. It feels very soft and natural, but it marks and stains easily and requires more careful maintenance.

Semi-aniline leather: This combines a natural look and feel with added protection. The light surface finish helps resist stains, fading, and everyday wear, making it more suitable for busy homes.

Pigmented leather: This has a heavier surface coating for durability and uniform colour. It is very hard-wearing but has a less natural appearance and feel.

Why do we use semi-aniline leather in our sofas?

We use semi-aniline leather because it offers the best balance between luxury and practicality.

It retains the natural texture, softness, and character of high-quality leather, while being more forgiving than aniline leather for daily living. This makes it well suited to sofas designed to be used and enjoyed every day.

Will my sofa look exactly the same as the photos?

Because semi-aniline leather is made from natural hides, some variation is to be expected.

You may notice:
- Subtle differences in grain or texture
- Natural creases or markings
- Slight tonal variation

These are normal characteristics of genuine leather and contribute to the individuality of each piece, rather than being defects.

Is semi-aniline leather durable?

Yes. The light protective finish makes semi-aniline leather more resistant to spills, stains, and wear than fully aniline leather, while still maintaining a premium look and feel.

It performs well in everyday environments, including family homes.

How do I care for semi-aniline leather?

Semi-aniline leather is relatively easy to care for:

- Wipe regularly with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth
- Use a leather-safe cleaner when needed
- Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or heat sources

With basic care, it will age beautifully over time.

Is semi-aniline leather a good choice for everyday living?

Yes. Semi-aniline leather is ideal if you want the look and feel of premium leather with added reassurance for daily use. It offers comfort, character, and durability in equal measure.

Is semi-aniline leather suitable for homes with pets?

Semi-aniline leather is a good option for pet-friendly households, particularly compared to fully aniline leather.

The light protective finish helps make it more resistant to everyday wear, light spills, and surface marks, which can be helpful in homes with cats or dogs. It is also easier to clean than untreated leather.

That said, semi-aniline leather is still a natural material. Sharp claws can scratch any leather surface, and repeated abrasion in the same area may show over time.

Care tips for homes with pets
- Keep pets’ claws trimmed where possible
- Use throws or blankets on favourite resting spots
- Wipe away dirt or moisture promptly with a soft cloth
- Avoid using harsh cleaners or wipes

With sensible care, semi-aniline leather will age naturally and develop character over time, even in busy, pet-friendly homes.
