ABOUT LEATHER & DELICATE MATERIALS
Natural leather and delicate materials may develop variations in texture, tone and finish over time.
Patina, softening and surface wear are assessed individually and described where relevant. Close-up photographs are provided whenever necessary to show the condition clearly.
We believe in transparency: what you see is what you receive.
