Leather Care Tips
Regularly vacuum or dust furniture and pillows to remove surface dirt and grime. Use a leather conditioner, such as Leather Master's Protection Cream ($20, 800-300-2539), every six months for shine.

Care Tip: To remove water-based stains, use a cloth dampened with a little lukewarm water. (Don't use soap or dip the stain in water, since the ring will be more noticeable than the stain.) To get out oil-based stains, wipe with a clean, dry cloth dampened with distilled water.
