PREVIOUS TIP
WANT TO BUY A LEATHER SOFA BUT CAN'T TELL IF IT'S REAL LEATHER?
BI-CAST IS LEAST EXPENSIVE:
IF IT'S ADVERTISED AS BI-CAST,IT HAS A POLYMER COATING. THIS HELPS WITH WEAR,BUT IT
REQUIRES MORE CARE. BODY OILS CAN HARM THE SOFA/CHAIR, AND REPAIR IS ALL BUT
IMPOSSIBLE.
TOP GRAIN IS MOST EXPENSIVE:
TOP GRAIN & 100% LEATHER ARE THE BEST AND CAN BE, BUT ARE NOT ALWAYS THE SAME! TOP
GRAIN WILL SHOW THE CHARACTER OF THE HIDE IT'S CUT FROM. SOMETIMES WHAT'S
ADVERTISED AS 100% LEATHER IS THE CUT BETWEEN TOP GRAIN & BI-CAST.
DON'T BE AFRAID TO ASK QUESTIONS OF THE SALES STAFF. IF THE ANSWERS ARE NOT READILY
AVAILABLE, FOLLOW UP TO YOUR QUESTION SHOULD BE THE
NEXT STEP.

GIVE THIS A TRY
Like a lamp, but not sure of the shade? EASY! Try shades from other lamp's in
the store. Maybe the store will switch shades for you, and maybe they cannot,
but you will now know what shade you want.
Remember, you can purchase the lamp with the existing shade, and change the
shade when you find the one you liked.
The PLUS is you have a secondary shade that's made for that lamp, if or when
you change up your decor.
