CARE AND CONSTRUCTION

Care

This French nubuck leather has a velvety soft, suede-like feel—it’s definitely not your run-of-the-mill stick-to-your-legs leather and will look a bit different from every angle. That’s part of the beauty.

For detailed care instructions, check out our post, “Caring for Meridian Leather.”

Spills & Stains

Treat spills as soon as possible by gently absorbing excess liquid with a clean, white cloth. Never rub—it might damage the material.

Upkeep & Maintenance

Gently brush the leather in both directions using a soft-bristle brush (one designed for the delicate nap of nubuck works best).

Cleaners & Conditioners

We don’t recommend any particular leather cleaner or conditioner—it’s difficult to predict exactly how it will affect the nap and color of the nubuck.

If you choose to apply a leather treatment, make sure it’s suitable for nubuck furniture, and test it on an inconspicuous spot on your piece to see how it dries.

Please note that consistent exposure to direct sunlight can lead to fading or discoloration. You can read more about fabric colorfastness in our post, “Fabric fading 101.”

COMFORT

Loula’s cushionless seat consists of four layers. A layer of loose fill (Feather Down or Poly Fill) sits on top of three layers of high-density foam: a “support layer”, a cushy “comfort layer,” and a "firmness layer" for structure. The seat is fixed to the frame and is not removable.

Seat Cushions: 80% foam, 20% loose fill
Back Cushions: 100% loose fill

Our lofty Feather Down is ethically sourced, and our vegan Poly Fill is designed to mimic the familiar fluff of feathers. We mix a small percentage of vegan poly fiber into the Feather Down cushions for a bit of spring.

As a rule, the fluffier the cushion, the more upkeep it will require. Our cushions are exceptionally soft, and much of the fill is loose, so periodic fluffing will go a long way.

You can read more about our cushions in Materials & Construction or in our post, “Inside scoop: Feather Down vs Poly Fill.”

What's the difference between Feather Down and Poly Fill?

Our Feather Down and Poly Fill cushions look and feel very similar. We engineer our shredded Poly Fill to mimic the decadent, sink-in experience associated with feather-filled cushions, and truthfully, sometimes we can't even tell the difference.

Our Poly Fill consists of entirely vegan poly fiber, while our Feather Down is a mix of ethically-sourced feather, ethically-sourced down, and vegan poly fiber.

Both fills are loose (not just big bricks of foam), and contents will shift around and shape to your favorite spots over time. Regular fluffing is strongly encouraged for both Feather Down and Poly Fill cushions to keep them looking and feeling like their prettiest, perkiest selves.

What's the best way to care for Meridian Leather?

Every so often, give your Meridian Leather a quick brush to distribute its natural oils and maintain its luster and decadent texture.

Brushing the leather in both directions for five minutes should do the trick. For regular upkeep, it's best to use a brush with soft bristles specifically designed for the delicate nap of nubuck. This is also the best way to remove everyday dust and dirt.

For dirt that's a bit more caked in, you'll first want a brush with coarser bristles, like brass wire. (Don't go attacking it with steel wool or anything, we're still talking brushes designed with fine leather in mind.)

For spills, gently soak up standing liquid with a clean, dry cloth before lightly dabbing to prevent stains. Spills happen, but they should be taken care of as quickly as possible.

We don't specifically recommend the use of leather cleaner or conditioner. But, if you do, make sure it's suitable for nubuck furniture, and test it out on an inconspicuous spot to make sure it doesn't affect the look or feel of the nubuck once it dries.

To prevent fading, keep your Meridian Leather out of the path of direct sunlight and periodically rotate your cushions.
