Frequently asked questions
What gives Vintage Leather its aged appearance?
The fabric is engineered to develop a natural patina at stretch points and marked areas over time, mimicking the way genuine leather ages. This is a design feature, not a manufacturing defect.
Does Vintage Leather meet fire safety requirements?
The fabric as supplied does not carry an inherent fire rating, but it can be treated with a fire retardant that will bring it into compliance with Australian Standard AS 1530.3. Contact Baresque for treatment options and pricing.
Can Vintage Leather be cleaned with bleach?
Yes, for difficult stains. Dampen a soft white cloth with a 10% bleach solution, rub gently, then rinse thoroughly with a water-dampened cloth to remove bleach residue. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
