When it comes to choosing the right colour leather for your bar stools, a strong factor in the decision will be the environment you put these leather stools in to.
Nowadays there are a whole host of leather colours and options available to the consumer, not to mention the different types of leathers on the market.
I have put the leather options available under the following headings: Classic Leather Colours These would be black and white leather, whether it is in faux leather, regenerated leather or genuine leather, these are the two most popular choices.
This is because between the two of them they will suit practically any environment, you really can't go too wrong with these colour leathers for your bar stool.
Being very safe bets they are perfect if you want something more classic and subtle rather than vibrant and adventurous.
Black leather is the most popular choice because it is so convenient for a kitchen or home environment, as marks will not show up so readily.
Obviously white leather will require more care, but if you opt for a leather bar stool that has been treated you can clean the surface with a damp cloth.
Please be aware that white leather is not a good choice for a cream kitchen these two colours do not work well together, and on a lesser scale having black leather bar stools in a brown (colour, not wood) kitchen also does not work terribly well.
Leather Colours Rising in Popularity Other leather colours worth considering for your home are brown, red and cream.
These three colours are becoming increasingly popular with consumers, when it comes to modern and contemporary furniture.
Unlike the classic leathers, these colours may differ substantially from stool to stool, due to the great number of variations in colour tone and hue.
You may also find differences between leather types for the same stool, these are due to the dying process.
When choosing a leather to match an existing colour within your home it is often worth getting a sample where possible, so that you know the bar stools will match or compliment your existing furniture and fittings.
Adventurous Leather Colours Nowadays there are a whole range of leather colours available to the bar stool consumer, and now even the more unusual colours are becoming easier to find.
Although still a relatively small group of bar stools; colours like blue, green, orange, pink, purple and even metallics are growing in popularity and availability.
These leather finishes are really designed to fit certain environments they are particularly popular within commercial business, such as bars, restaurants etc.
Two-Tone Leather Colours This is an unusual option for most leather bar stools, but there are a small number that are upholstered in two different coloured leathers.
You are often able with these to choose the leather colour and type, for upholstery on both the seat and back.
If you are not after leather bar stools there are plenty of other bar stool finishes available such as microfibre, patterned material, wood/veneer, plastic etc the list is vast, all you need to do is look on the web.
