Hi all,
I'm working on getting an order placed during the H&M sale, and just when I think I have everything worked out, I get confused. I'm ordering a pair of H&M Daly Swivel Gliders in Atticus leather. http://www.hancockandmoore.com/Produ...y-Glider-Chair
First I was having a hard time choosing nail trim, and now that I've decided on that, I'm back to square one questioning my leather selection. I'm having a great deal of trouble deciding between the Atticus Java and Atticus Sable leather. The swatches I ordered are nearly identical with the Sable seeming a little lighter with more red undertones. Researching nail trim, I found Duane's pictures, showing the exact opposite.

I can't seem to find pictures of finished pieces in either of these leathers and was hoping someone might be able to weigh in on their color/undertones. Ultimately, they're both dark brown, but we would like to choose the one with more red undertones if possible.
Thanks in advance for any input or pictures you're able to provide.

I can make this easy for you.
Sable has a hint of red, its a "Chestnut" color (brown dominant, reddish cast)
Java is pure brown.

Thank you, Duane. I will send you an email with my order!
Atticus Sable is gorgeous and IMO the best of the best in GR 2. I've got it in the very comfortable Austin High Back Tilt Back chair and ottoman.
It's brown but the red undertones make it very interesting to look at vs a straight brown color.
Thank you for your thoughts! Your description is exactly what I had in mind. I ended up ordering 2 H&M Daly Swivel Gliders in the Atticus Sable. I cannot wait until the arrive!
You're going to love it- very rich looking. Enjoy!
