How to Recognize Genuine Leather: 5 Simple Steps
Purchasing leather? Avoid being duped by low-quality imitations. Here's how you can tell that the leather we use at Al Sajjad Production is authentic.
1. Examine the scent
The fragrance of real leather is earthy and rich. Typically, synthetic (fake) leather has a chemical or plastic odor.
2. Examine the Surface
Real leather has its own natural grain, which includes minor flaws, creases, and texture. Fake leather frequently appears overly flawless or smooth.
3. Experience the Texture
To the touch, real leather is warm, supple, and soft. Unlike rigid synthetic fabrics, it organically bends and shapes.
4. The Test of Water
Place a drop of water on top. The leather will gradually absorb it if it's genuine. Water will be repelled by faux leather.
5. Examine the edges
The margins of real leather are rough and fibrous. The margins of fake leather are typically sealed or extremely smooth.
