better life better life We see sustainability as more than just the latest fashion; it’s a tenet of our philosophy. On the one hand it refers to the manufacture of furniture that is capable of giving as much pleasure in years to come as it does today. It also means using the least harmful materials around; ones which damage neither our health nor our environment. We consider this to be of great importance. Many of our materials carry a seal of approval confirming that the burdens they cause are within the legal limits. 54 55

Leather is our passion. It is also a material we love to use for our furniture. We use only the very best hides. Our staff visit the tanneries to select the best hides available for our leather furniture. The leather that covers your sofa was meticulously and thoroughly checked before being used. And we like to think that this extra care is noticeable. By using natural, traditional production methods, we ensure that the typical characteristics of the leather remain intact. Our leather is breathable, it feels good to touch and is always a pleasant temperature.
