Elevate Your Space with High-End Leather Furniture

Posted on February 28th, 2024 by woodleys.

Here at Woodley’s, we have made it our priority to source the highest quality leather furniture from the best American manufacturers with proven track records of excellence. 

Since our inception in 1979, we have built a reputation based on our ability to only bring the absolute best products to our customers. And that experience has taught us to focus on a few key areas. 

What we will show on this page is details about the quality standards we focus on for all our bedroom, dining room, and living room furniture, as well as examples from our current range. 

What Defines High-End Quality Furniture? 

When you’re looking for high-quality leather furniture, you first have to start with the type of leather used. But it’s just as important to look at the frame structure, seat cushions, and overall design style as well. 

Let’s break it down. 

The Quality Of Leather

Full and top-grain leather are the two best types of leather you can choose for your home furniture. These are the best when it comes to durability and ease of maintenance, and there are some subtle differences. 

Full-Grain Leather

The best quality leather from a durability and appearance perspective is full-grain leather. During the processing of the hides, none of the upper layers is removed. 

These upper layers are where the toughest fibers are, and keeping them intact ensures the leather will last for decades, even under constant use, like with leather sofas in a busy family home. 

The other benefit that full-grain leather provides is the patina effect. 

This is a highly polished look that comes naturally with age and use. Regular contact with humans gradually polishes the upper layer, giving it this unique and highly sought-after look. 

If you want something to outlast your lifetime, then this is one of the best options for home furniture. 

Another option is top-grain leather. 

Top-Grain Leather

Many leather sofas these days come with top-grain leather, which offers similar durability with some additional advantages. 

During the processing of the hide, the upper layer is sanded down. This makes top-grain leather softer to touch and sit on and also a bit easier to work with for different types of furniture, including leather sofas. 

Leather manufacturers also apply a protective coating, which ensures that the majority of spills can simply be wiped away without causing stains or damage. 

For a family home, where kids tend to have accidents with food and drink, top-grain leather can be an excellent choice. 

Because of the characteristics of top and full-grain leather, we believe these should be at the top of the list for any high-end furniture purchase. 

The Frame And Structure

Just as important as the quality of the leather is the structure of the frame. Whether you’re buying dining chairs, bar stools, leather sofas, or recliners, if the frame isn’t of the same quality standard as the leather, then it will cause problems in the short term. 

Solid Hardwood

An essential material for high-end furniture is a frame made of kiln-dried hardwood. These typically include oak, beech, and ash, which don’t tend to warp over time and with temperature changes. 

For a leather sofa, having a hardwood frame is essential, as a sagging or warped frame will be almost impossible to repair in an economical way. 

You also need to consider that solid hardwood is a far superior material for any exposed wood, whether that’s on leather sofas, dining chairs, office chairs, or cabinets. 

Not only does it stand up to constant wear and tear, as well as environmental factors, but it looks much better than cheaper types of wood. 

Durable Steel

Another option for high-end luxury furniture is to use stainless steel for parts of the frames. While this isn’t commonly found in a leather sofa, it is a vital material for recliners. 

Any part of the frame of a reclining leather sofa that moves has to be able to stand up to regular movement and heavy strain. Unless these mechanical parts are made with strong steel, they will quickly bend out of shape. 

Many people end up experiencing this with cheap leather sofas. Unfortunately, it’s often not possible to repair those mechanical parts. 

Our focus here at Woodley’s has been on carefully assessing all the steel frames in products we offer to ensure that they are sturdy and durable enough to last for decades. 

Long-Lasting Springs

When it comes to a leather sofa, loveseat, recliner, or sectional, it’s critical that you also consider the quality of the interior springs. 

The best leather sofas and chairs come with hand-tied springs to keep them from moving out of shape. 

This not only improves comfort levels, but the process ensures that springs last for decades without requiring adjustments or replacement. 

We inspect all leather sofas, chairs, and recliners for the craftsmanship of the springs to ensure that our customers receive the best quality available. 

High-Density Foam

Another major quality standard that we focus on ensures that every leather sofa, chair, loveseat, sectional, and recliner has seat cushions made with high-density foam. 

Many manufacturers of leather couches will cut costs by using lower-quality foam. And while it will feel the same to sit on at first, you’ll notice sagging and loss of support within just a few years. 

High-density foam, on the other hand, is designed to maintain its support and firmness, even in a busy family living room. 

Not only is it important for general comfort, but when poor-quality foam starts to sag, it can cause posture and back issues. 

The Style And Design

The final thing you have to take into consideration when evaluating the quality standards of leather furniture is the overall design. 

Here are the main style categories that we have available to help customers find the perfect match for their homes. 

Modern Design

Modern leather furniture is becoming a lot more popular, with many manufacturers now offering minimalist designs with clean and geometric lines. 

The whole idea behind a modern leather sofa is that it doesn’t stand out and become a centerpiece in a living room. People tend to choose this style when they have other pieces of furniture or a particular view that they don’t want to distract from. 

Classic Rustic Design

On the opposite end of the design scale is the classic rustical style that includes designs like Chesterfield button tufting. You’ll always notice a lot of intricate details and patterns that make such a leather sofa stand out. 

Because it’s so polar opposite to modern furniture, it’s always best not to cause a clash by mixing the two styles in a living room or even your home in general. 

It’s the perfect addition for creating an extremely warm and welcoming environment, with maximum comfort and visual impact. 

Contemporary Design

Finally, there is an option for people who don’t want understated minimalist furniture or extremely ornate classic styles. 

What contemporary style furniture offers is a balance of the two, which makes it the perfect option when you’re undecided or don’t want to take things to extremes. 

The other advantage is that with the right approach, you can combine contemporary leather couches with classic cabinets in the same room without causing a clash. 

Here at Woodley’s, we have worked with some of the best furniture manufacturers to expand the style choices for our customers. It means that you have the best possible chance of finding the perfect style to suit your home and personality.
