Timeless leather | Sustainability with tradition

Dec 08, 2024

We have once again added some special leather-covered pieces to our inventory !

Leather is one of the oldest materials in human history. Around 100,000 years ago, Stone Age people recognized its benefits and used it for hunting and gathering . In ancient Egypt , it was already valued for its aesthetic and practical versatility; in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance , it ultimately became a status symbol. Thus, leather has ultimately shaped furniture history: from ornate seating of bygone eras to modern design classics. Leather combines elegance, durability , and character – like no other material!

Leather is not only timelessly beautiful, but also incredibly practical. It's robust, easy to care for , and develops a unique patina over the years, giving each piece of furniture a distinctive personality. At the same time, at Revive, we place great importance on handling leather responsibly . Our leather furniture is always secondhand and professionally refurbished in our workshop. For new upholstery, we only use sustainable, animal-free alternatives such as vegan leather. This means that we restore leather that is already in circulation to its former glory and extend its lifespan to the maximum. In this way, we are firmly committed to combating the waste of an inherently high-quality material.

Below this blog post, I've compiled my personal highlights from our current leather range. We also currently have an exclusive selection of elegant sideboards and tables in stock for you. And if you just want to browse, it's certainly worth taking a look at our new arrivals .
