Leather has been used for centuries to make furniture, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to any living space. It is a material that has stood the test of time, and its durability and versatility continue to make it a popular choice for furniture makers and consumers alike. The history of leather furniture can be traced back to ancient civilizations, where animal hides were used to create comfortable seating arrangements.

As the spring season grows near, we are reminded of the beauty and serenity of the natural world. Celebrate natural materials in your home this season with a few favorites from our Leather Furniture collection.

Over time, leather furniture became more refined, and the art of handcrafting leather pieces became a highly sought-after skill. Today, handcrafted leather furniture is considered a luxury item, with artisanal techniques being used to create unique and beautiful pieces that are as functional as they are beautiful.

We source most of our leather products from our partners in Indonesia.

Indonesia has a rich history of producing high-quality leather for use in furniture and crafts, with skilled artisans and craftsmen who are known for their attention to detail and dedication to their craft. From stools to chairs, to ottomans and headboards, the craftsmen use their expertise to create functional and beautiful pieces that are both practical and stylish. The leather furniture pieces made in Indonesia are handcrafted, with intricate details and designs that make them truly unique.

One of the most popular uses of leather in furniture is for dining chairs and bar & counter stools.

Leather seating adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to any dining room, and they are also comfortable and durable. Leather is easy to clean and maintain, making it a practical choice for dining chairs that are used daily.

Another popular use of leather in furniture is for headboards.

Leather headboards add a touch of rustic charm to any bedroom, and they are also durable and easy to maintain. They can be made in a variety of styles and designs, from traditional to modern, making them a versatile choice for any bedroom decor.

One of the unique features of leather furniture is that no two pieces are exactly alike.

Each piece of leather has its own unique characteristics, such as texture, color, and pattern, which adds to the overall charm and beauty of the piece. This makes leather furniture a popular choice for those who appreciate one-of-a-kind, handmade pieces that are not mass-produced.
