    Default Too Picky?

    I have just received a H&M lounger Document tobacco. There is a dark spot on the cushion that is really starting to bother me. I pointed it out when they delivered it they said that is the way it is? It looks like a mole on the cushion here are the pictures, Is that just the way it is you get dark spots like that it just does not look like that any where else on the piece.

    Its a blemish on the cowhide itself like a mole, or a birthmark. Sometimes we forget this is a natural product, full of imperfections, and not unlike our own skin. The cutter makes a decision when marking a hide for pattern cutting what to leave in and what is unacceptable. They often tend to leave in natural markings like that rather that ruin that whole section of leather by marking it out.

    If its terribly bothersome you can ask your dealer to swap it out for you (Town and Country piece, yes?) and most likely they can exchange the casing for another.
