How Do I Care for Pebbled Leather?
Our Pebbled Leathers—including Pebble Grain, Sorrento, Belvedere, and Henry’s—feature durable textures that age beautifully over time.
- Pebble Grain: Treated for water repellency. Clean with a soft cotton cloth, slightly dampened with distilled or sodium-free seltzer water and mild bar soap, using circular motions. Wipe again with just water, and allow to dry completely. No creams, polishes, or conditioners needed.
- Sorrento: Not treated for water repellency. Leather may darken when wet, but will return to its original tone once dry. A waxed finish resists dirt and enhances patina with use. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild bar soap. Avoid detergents, solvents, or abrasives.
