DAVARG LEATHER CARE

Caring For Full-grain Leather


Preserving Grain, Sheen and Patina

WHY CARE FOR LEATHER


Full-grain leather has the same structure as human skin and would benefit from conditioning to keep it soft, supple and durable. Due to its dual-layer structure, it requires multi-level conditioning with natural moisturizers to preserve and enhance the grain, sheen and patina and to nourish and protect both layers. 


The grain layer needs a thicker consistency conditioning agent such as a wax or balm to prevent the grains from getting saturated with oil. The relatively looser fiber structure absorbs oils more readily than grain layer and need a deep penetrating lighter consistency oil. Proper conditioning and moisture is also essential to enhance the vitality and durability of leather.


grain

epidermal structure

The epidermal top layer in full-grain leather retains the character of the natural hide. Vegetable tanning preserves this layer and the grain continues to mature and develop further character with age. 

sheen

grain translucency

The leather grain has a natural shine that reflects and refracts light even when they are tinted deep with a shade. Leather sheen improves as grains surface gets waxed and polished. Opaque leather lacks sheen. 

patina

shade variegations

Patina is the natural unevenness in shades that gets pronounced as grain layer is stretched and as leather absorbs moisture and oils. Patina develops with age, giving the leather a well-worn vintage appearance.
