Austen Leather Hide - HIDE/AUST/SHAR

Austen Leather is a premium quality hide sourced to meet the demands of both professional upholsterers and home furnishing enthusiasts. With its supple texture, consistent finish, and excellent durability, it’s an ideal choice for a wide range of upholstery projects — from statement sofas and armchairs to headboards, ottomans, and bespoke furniture pieces.

Each hide is sold individually (per No.), so you can order exactly the quantity you need for your project without any waste. The natural characteristics of real leather — including subtle variations in grain and texture — give every hide its own unique character, adding warmth and authenticity to finished pieces that simply can’t be replicated with synthetic materials.

Austen Leather is well suited to both trade professionals working on high-end commissions and retail customers looking to tackle a quality DIY upholstery project. Its workability makes it a favourite among experienced craftspeople, while its forgiving nature means it’s also approachable for those newer to working with leather. Whether you’re re-upholstering a cherished antique or creating something entirely new, Austen Leather delivers a result to be proud of.
