Re: H&M Leather Comparisons
This is great crunchysue!! If you get a chance I'd love to see Weston Cane Burnished, Mesquite Saddle Burnished, and Cameo Tan Burnished...I'm trying to decide on one of the lighter burnished colors for a chair. I know they will never be exact because of the handmade nature, but I'm trying to find one without a lot of overly orange tones :) thanks!

Duane posted awhile back about not wanting people to clog up his server with large photos, so I've kept these to 700px wide. On my own server, though, I've put larger ones - 2000px - which give a much better view of the textures, especially if you have a large, high quality monitor.

Everybody's questions is, Are the colors accurate? I've found that the leather samples are just like paint samples - they look completely different in different lights. So, yes and no, the photos are accurate and also not accurate. So helpful, right? These are about as good as they can be without a professional studio; taken outside on an overcast day (not much sun this time of year in Oregon) with a high end DSLR & lens on a tripod, with a nickel to help the camera focus.

Thanks for posting the Equestrian Chestnut on your server. I really like the Tiburon Butternut but it is bit fragile. If you can post a picture of Equestrian Claret it would be appreciated.
Re: H&M Leather Comparisons
I have Tiburon Butternut on three stools at a breakfast bar in our home and I would not classify it as fragile at all. It's a beautiful leather with a nice lustre and hand, and I have wished that I had an opportunity to use it in a larger scale.
