Hi Mr. Collie - thank you again for your guidance. I have connected with Stickley and thankfully they are assisting. I just want to check - it sounds like the wear on the welt trim you would consider normal (on the basis of all that you have taught me about finished leather above)? Thanks again - I will keep you posted!
Correct, you are going to get friction wear on welt trims, especially painted finishes and if you wear a lot of high-friction blue jeans while using the pieces. Good luck, Stickly is a classy company, I figured if you got the right person they can help you out in some manner.

Hancock and Moore spoke to the supplier of Juno Leather and they are looking into things on topcoat loss. One thing the tannery told H&M was that they are seeing a spike in loss of topcoats due to Covid-19 and frequent use of hand-sanitizers which are alcohol-based.
That alcohol on your hands WILL remove the topcoat on leather, so be sure to wash it off your hands before you use your leather furniture at home.
