K Grade Leather
Your K Grade suite is unique! When leather furniture falls under the "K" grading, it is the highest quality. Slight imperfections show through, such as where the cow may have rubbed against a branch or where it wrinkled from fat rolls. The feel of full grain is soft and malleable. It will have a stronger leather smell. The hides are dyed with a clear aniline dye so that the natural beauty of the animal can show through. Over time, the full-grain leather will continue to age and change adding character depending on its exposure to sunlight and other environmental factors.
A Grade Leather
Unlike its name, A grade or top-grain leather is not the highest grading for the hides used to make furniture. Instead, the top grain is an imitation grain that is stamped on top of the dyed hide. The purpose of top-grain grading is to mask imperfections and to give the chair or sofa a uniform look. While many consumers say they want the best leather on their furniture, they don't like the uneven coloring that shows through on natural materials. A top-grain coat is put onto the dyed hide after the real grain is sanded away to provide a smooth surface. While top grains feel stiffer to the touch, they are just as durable, if not more longwearing, as higher-end full-grain coverings
