Some pure aniline leathers can show surface pressure marks when scratched. We have an easy solution to fix those marks, a specialty cloth ($ 18 each) that with 30 seconds or less of rubbing will eliminate most those pressure marks. Before and After.

Leathers that have pull-up effects (always will be pure anilines, finished leathers are coated and will not show this) are going to react to pressure marks and show as color bursts. This is normal. Recently a client send me photos of his Hancock and Moore Recliner in Markle leather, which is a high-end GR 4 super-luxury hide, and was concerned that this was delivery damage. It is not, this is how all our Markle pieces arrive to us, these are pressure marks accumulated during production. These are what the Magic Cloths eliminate if this look is objectionable to you. Everything you see in these photos is normal handling marks when making the piece in this series leather, and there and most wax-infused leathers from any maker will show the same characteristics and marks.
