Leather is a natural product derived from animal hides, meaning each hide is unique. Variations in texture of the leather are not considered a fault, and are inherent to the natural beauty and uniqueness of the leather. As every piece of leather is different, the colour may vary slightly during the tanning process, leading to some inconsistencies in hue and depth. Leather features natural marking such as dents, scars, scratches, wrinkles or blemishes. These characteristics are inherent in natural leather, and are not considered a defect.
