The Mateo Modular Sofa

· Leathers have been vigorously hand-distressed to achieve their distinctive look and feel and are therefore highly absorbent. Leathers will acquire marks over time, enhancing their rugged character.  We do not recommend using leather cleaning wipes and creams as these products may absorb and mark the leather.                                                                                               
· Lightly dust with a clean white microfibre cloth and vacuum on a regular basis. 
· Do not place your leather too close to a heat source, as it may cause it to crack and age prematurely. 
· Protect your leather from direct sunlight and moonlight, as it may cause it to fade, discolour or crack.  All leathers will fade over time, however, darker colours may fade faster when placed in direct sunlight.           
· Avoid sitting on the arms, back or very edge of your leather furniture as this may cause distortion and/or damage.
· Be aware that clothing with transferable dyes, such as blue jeans, could transfer the dye onto light-coloured leather furniture.
· Never use “standard” cleaning products to remove dust, spills or stains from leather.                          
· We recommend consulting a reputable and recognised professional upholstery specialist if required.
