Note that this chair is upholstered in the leather type aniline:
The aniline leather is made from the most advanced raw hides and has a natural surface where the original markings add an authentic look with lots of character. Each skin is unique and completely unique. Over time, a patina will develop in the leather, which will give the chair personality. Aniline leather is the term for leather that has been tanned and dyed without a top finish. The surface is completely natural and the pores are open. This makes the leather 100% breathable and provides the best sitting comfort.
