Custom genuine leather replacement cushions. Ideal for benches, mid-century chairs
Kindly don't purchase this listing. Cushion projects need to be quoted individually depending on size, leather, and other options. This listing is to give you an idea of the product we will make.
Things to know in advance about leather: the construction of leather is going to be about double that of other materials for a few reasons: 1) it requires not just an industrial sewing machine, but one that works with leather, the standard industrial machine will not handle working with leather upholstery; and 2) leather is unforgiving, therefore it must be worked with slowly and methodically. Once it is pierced it cannot be undone, the hole shows forever therefore it takes precision and exacting and 3) leather itself is expensive but also since it does not come by the yard but is on a hide, the sizing is odd and therefore there is much more waste, especially with larger projects like cushions. I charge by the square foot, so my customers are not charged for leather that is wasted, you are not charged by the hide you use. I use overages for other small projects so that you are not charged for that. Please keep these things in mind when asking for an estimate.
For an estimate, please send me the following:
A) exact cushion measurements including width, length and thickness of each cushion and number of each cushion (if cushions are not rectangular please provide a photo)
B) We do not sell stuffing for the cover, we will custom make the covers only.
C) Leather you would like. Kindly share the reference picture of the leather colour you are looking for and rest will be taken care at our end. Please note all leathers here are upholstery leathers and appropriate for cushions, couches, etc.
Depending on the size of your cushion or cushions your leather piece may need to be seamed together. Decorative seams are very common as you cannot always get large pieces of leather of the same hide. If this is the case I will make you aware of it and give you options.
** PLEASE NOTE: It is very difficult to estimate cost realistically without knowing your leather selection. If you haven't selected something, please wait until that time to ask for an estimate, as I do take the time to go through each estimate one by one to give a detailed response to each customer.
D) if you would like piping on your cushion, a boxed edge (no piping) or a decorative stitch with either one or two seams. In order of cost from least expensive to most: boxed edge, one stitch, double stitch, piping
E) your zip code
Thank you!
