I'll start a new thread on this rather than continuing the Leather Care thread. I received a sample today that's the closest I've seen to Claret Red. It's from a leather furniture manufacturer in the UK.

I'm going to approach them to attempt to get a supply. It's probably going to be really expensive, because their furniture certainly is. The leather is very high quality. Does anyone know enough about upholstering to know how many yards the seats and benches would require? Is anyone else interested in buying some?

Cheers,
Eric

I always thought auto/marine leather was finished differently than furniture leather. Is that not correct?
