Kiki leathers?

[dmattinson]

Understanding that the grading is a pricing model and not indicative of the quality of the material itself, I'm curious about the "Kiki" leathers (Grade 3, unprotected).
No one has any pictures of these leathers on any furniture but when you have art pieces like this in your home

(and are moving to a more tropical location), convention can go out the window on accent pieces.
Any info about these leathers?

Response I got from H&M (just 1 day response time):
Kiki is a new leather that was just introduced this past fall. The description that we have is as follows:

Kiki is an Italian leather that is finished with oils and waxes and the application of extreme heat to create an almost "patent leather" look. Kiki has a very light pull up effect. Kiki has no protective finish.
