Suede

Suede is leather with a napped finish. Suede can also refer to a similar napped or brushed finish on many kinds of fabrics. Suede leather is made from the under side of the skin (lamb, pig, deer). Splits from thick hides of cow and deer are also sueded but due to the fiber nature have a shaggy nap. Because suede does not include the tough exterior skin layer, suede is less durable but softer than standard ("full-grain") leather. Its softness, thinness, and pliability make it suitable for clothing and delicate uses; suede was originally used for women's gloves. Suede leather is also popular in upholstery.

Fabric Backlighting

"Backlighting" happens when light filters in through translucent fabrics from behind. Our swatches don't show you the effect of backlighting, which can soften colours and highlight fabric textures. If you'd like to see how backlighting affects the colour or texture of a particular material go visit our London Fabric Company Shop.
