Not all types of coverings are suitable for all furniture. There is an almost infinite number of possibilities and options. So you have to find the right one and find the one that will best meet your needs and preferences.
Do you live alone or do you have a crowd at home? Will the furniture be mainly decorative or will it be used daily? Do you suffer from a particular condition or allergy to certain products or fibers? Do you have pets, cats that scratch your furniture? All of this and many other aspects can influence your choice, well beyond the color of the fabric and its texture.
Natural or synthetic composition, velvet, felt, woven, knit, patterned, plain, striped or polka dot, you will be guided to find the right fabric that you like and that meets your needs.
Full grain leather is 100% real leather. No laminated fake leather! It is important that it is dyed throughout its thickness to avoid snags and wear over time.
Also called faux leather, these types of coverings are made from polyurethane, polyvinyl or plants. Multiple options are available.
LUWISS tested hundreds of fabrics to see how they were resistant to scratching. Some of them really stood out. Click HERE for a harmony between cat and sofa.
