I have a small den. In my small den is a large, medium brown leather sleeper sofa and a matching loveseat. The loveseat was pretty much destroyed by Chloe when she was a baby and thought it was one big rawhide bone, there for her delight.
NOT.
I'm getting the seats of the sofa recovered so that the frame, arms and back will still be leather and the cushions will have a brown fabric background with a black pattern sewn in. It's hard to describe. I figured that I could never match the sofa with a chair so I'm going with a black chair since it will go well with the pattern on the new cushions.
I started looking at leather chairs this afternoon.
I did find a small "bonded leather" recliner at Pier One. Has anyone ever gotten any furniture made from bonded leather...and/or any furniture from Pier One? I looked it up on the Internet and bonded leather is made up of 17% leather scraps, plus polyurethane (plastic). I like how easy leather is to clean when you're dealing with dogs (I'm not brave like Donna and her white furniture in this room). It seems to have pretty good reviews on the web but I'm looking for some first hand experience from those who've lived with it.
Thanks!
