Modern homes and designs usually use leather furniture, especially black leather furniture. Leather furniture in black color looks very rich, affluent, sophisticated, and classy. Not only that but black furniture made of leather can also be paired with accessories in different colors. It is also appropriate for both formal and casual living rooms and can be the focal point of any vintagethemed or contemporary living room. In short, it is very versatile. Most people also choose black leather furniture because dirt stains and spots are not so obvious in black background. Compared to other furniture in different colors, black leather upholstered furniture requires special care and maintenance. There are also dos and don'ts when cleaning furniture in black leather. Makers of black leather furniture advise their buyers to use only ordinary mild soap with moisturizer. This prevents the leather from getting damaged. If there is dirt or grime on your leather furniture, just lather the soap on a soft cloth and wipe it gently on the area with dirt. You can also do this to regularly clean the furniture. However, do not leave your furniture soaking wet. This is not good for the leather and also the inner part of the furniture. For black furniture made of leather, it was said that mixing linseed oil with white vinegar and applying the mixture using a soft cloth on the leather surface of your furniture can make your furniture shiny. The application should be in circular motion and you have to do this evenly on the surface of the furniture. One drawback of buying furniture in black is its tendency to fade. To prevent bleaching or fading of color, do not position your furniture in a place where there is too much sunlight. If you do this, the color will last longer and will add a few more years to your furniture. Another thing is that you should not use water when there are butter or grease stains on your leather sofa, black or other colors. This will just make the stain spread even more. You should just blot the stain with paper towel or dry cloth. Inks from pens should be removed using rubbing alcohol. Use a cotton swap to wipe the ink off the furniture. The ink might not be too obvious on black furniture but you should maintain your furniture's appearance and condition for it to last a long time.
