Vegetable-Tanned - How to Preserve or Conserve these Antique Leather Chair Seats
Roger this client would like these leather chairs preserved.
She doesn't mind the way they look, but i informed her that they will crack and deteriorate further if left unattended.
She just wants to rehydrate and condition the leather if possible, leaving them as natural as possible.
I was thinking that they should be cleaned, rinsed, relaxed, fatliquored, impregnated to strengthen, and aniline dyed to hide the cracks (she doesn't want the cracks fixed).
Top coated?
Leather scent.
