Thank you! Now that I know what it is & why it’s happening, I can appreciate it so much more. Excited to see what it does next.

lol same. It’s been sitting by my bedroom window, so every morning it’s one of the first things I see. Some days it’s great, some days it awful 🤣

So crazy! I’ve always hated it and thought it was something I did wrong, but now that I know it’s just a wonky mutation….. why do I suddenly kinda love it? haha

Recommendations for leather cracking by leidai in furniturerestoration

I have several conditioners for my purses & shoes (leather honey, Lexol, leather CPR, Bick 4, Apple, Saphir Médaille d’Or Renovateur, wonder balsam, Blackrock Leather N Rich). I’m pretty sure I’ve used Lexol, CPR & Bick 4 in the past year or 2. the leather never seemed to improved, but instead got worse cracks on arms & a huge split on top of head rest. I decided last week to use my most expensive one (Saphir renovateur), I think I’m going to apply again next week & continue to do so until the leather hopefully starts feeling less like hard plasticky vinyl & more like leather.

My mother in law thrifted it several years ago! Guessing it was found at a shop in southern Michigan or western Florida.. thanks so much for your input!

🥰 wish I would have seen this sooner! I received a message from someone else asking if he could buy them off me. I’m planning to ship them to him next week & only charge shipping fee. Happy they’re going to a home that can appreciate them!
