Which is the best natural leather? Comparison between cow, buffalo, nubuck and aniline leather


Choosing the right leather for a product, whether it's furniture or accessories, can make the difference between a mass-produced item and a long-term investment. Not all natural leather is the same: there are important differences between types such as cowhide, buffalo leather, nubuck or aniline leather. Each has distinct characteristics, advantages and disadvantages and suits different purposes.

Below we have prepared a comparison table to help you understand the differences and choose what suits you best.

Comparison chart:

When choosing the type of leather for the pieces of furniture in your home, think about the end use: do you want extreme durability? Choose buffalo leather (Pure Leather) - perfect for sturdy sofas and armchairs. Looking for a balance between strength and aesthetics? Cowhide (Titanic Leather) is the classic choice for chairs, tables and cabinets. Prefer refinement and a velvety feel? Nubuck (Sierra) adds a sophisticated touch to armchairs and elegant pieces. And if you want truly luxurious furniture, aniline leather (Gogain Leather) is the ultimate choice, provided you give it the care it needs.

At Verva.ro, we are dedicated to offering premium natural leather furniture to suit any lifestyle and high quality demands.
