Types of Leather Hide for Luxury Dining Chairs and Bar Stools
Full-Grain (Natural) Leather is widely regarded as the highest quality and most expensive type of leather used in upholstery.
This leather is made by removing the hair from the hide and then tanning it without sanding or buffing the surface. As a result, it retains its original texture, natural markings, and oil-absorbing properties preserving the full character of the hide.
Full-grain leather offers a luxurious look and feel often likened to the softness of kid gloves. However, because the top grain remains intact with visible pores, it is more susceptible to scuffs and stains, making it less suited to environments with heavy wear and tear.

Corrected Grain Leather – Durable, Affordable, and Uniform in Appearance
Corrected grain leather is one of the most popular choices for upholstery, known for its exceptional durability and cost-effectiveness. It’s created by buffing or polishing the top grain of the hide to remove natural imperfections, resulting in a smooth, consistent finish.
This process enhances the leather’s resilience to daily wear and tear, making it ideal for high-traffic areas in both residential and commercial settings. Its uniform texture not only improves the visual appeal but also reduces material waste, as more of the hide can be used effectively.
Perfect for those seeking a practical yet stylish leather option, corrected grain leather offers the look of luxury with long-lasting performance at a more accessible price point.
Leather Finishes – Tailored for Style, Comfort & Durability
Pigmented leather is a durable and versatile option, ideal for both residential and commercial interiors. In this process, a layer of pigmented dye is sprayed over the leather hide to create a uniform, rich colour while adding a protective barrier. This finish enhances the leather’s resistance to wear, stains, and fading without sacrificing its natural softness and luxurious feel.
Pigmented leather is available in a wide spectrum of vibrant colours, offering endless possibilities to complement any design aesthetic or décor style.
Aniline leather is a luxurious, high-quality finish that showcases the authentic beauty of natural leather. In this process, the hide is dyed using non-toxic, water-based dyes that penetrate deeply while preserving the leather's natural grain and character. A thin layer of pigment is applied to create a more even colour tone across the surface, followed by a light protective coating to maintain its softness and durability.
This finish results in leather that feels supple and natural, with a rich, uniform appearance that develops a beautiful patina over time.

Our Bespoke Luxury Leather Service
Unlike fabric, genuine leather is not sold by the meter it is sold as a full hide. Because of this, prices can vary significantly depending on several factors: the quality and finish of the leather, the country of origin, and the size of the hide itself.
At LUX SEAT, every bespoke commission through our Luxury Leather Service is individually priced upon request. We take meticulous care in sourcing hides that are appropriately sized for each project. This approach helps minimize unnecessary costs and material waste, ensuring you receive the highest quality result tailored to your exact specifications.
