I have a King George III leather chair purchased about 5 - 7 years ago and am trying now to identify the leather.
I have been to the local dealers and went through a bunch of leather samples with no luck. I am thinking the leather may have been discontinued. The closest match would be a Class IV Luggage Russett however mine seems to have more splotches of black painted on in addition to a brown, reddish hue. The unfinished side of the leather is soft, white in color, like Luggage Russett.
Here are some photos of the chair. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
That's a hand-antiqued leather. Most likely Heirloom Chestnut, or Hand-Antiqued Saddle. Hard to tell with just one photo....its definitely not Luggage series.

Thank you for the reply. Here are some more pictures. Not the best quality. If it is helpful I will reshoot the pictures with a better camera.
I'm looking to match the chair with a sofa and ottoman.
Photos are a bit too small, but that's the King George Chair. Best thing to do is snip off about half of the 'flag' under the chair and mail that to me , then I can identify the leather for you. Just send it to the store with a note.

I looked under the chair and there is only a black Hancock and Moore label but nothing else.
I will upload better pictures tomorrow in case that helps. Thanks!
Looks like the flag is gone....I can probably I.D. The leather with good, hi-res photos.

Here are some hi-res shots. I hope that you can identify this leather. Of note, the back or unfinished side of the leather is cream or pale colored, soft, and most closely resembles the back of luggage russett although my chair is not luggage russett.
Can I email you pictures? Thank you!
Hmmm....good photo, but need to see more. Email to dcollie@keepingroom.com if you prefer. Under the seat cushion, there should be a unique registration number on the 'care tag', If your piece is less than four years old it will have that. if it does, I can pull the whole build specs from that registration number.

Unfortunately the chair is one piece, no cusions to look under and again nothing underneath the chair except for a black Hancock and Moore patch. Thank you for the email address and your help.
I sent an email with some picture attachments. I hope you received it well. Again thanks for your help!
