"We hadn't yet used Pykara leather in our work, for example, to cover furniture originally upholstered in saddlery leather. Of course, the choice of leather is up to the customer. The owner of this set of bar stools chose Pykara leather: it has a beautiful finish and a soft feel. For us, every detail counts: you can see that even for the edge, we use the same finish in the same shade to give a smooth, detailed look. The leather is simply perfect in your hands, but also on the digital cutting table. It's quite stretchy, but also holds its shape. These qualities enabled us to use Pykara leather to cover his entire leather dressing room. The customer chose this type of leather, appreciating its noble appearance and soft structure."
