How to Clean Stickley Leather

The Stickley furniture company is a business that began with the Stickley brothers in the early 1900s. According to the Stickley website, the tenets of this company are "enduring tradition, superior craftsmanship, an unshakeable philosophy of excellence." Stickley offers furnishings in wood, upholstery and leather. Sofas, love seats, chairs, ottomans and sectionals often feature the fine quality of Stickley's Craftsman leather. If you have a leather-covered furnishing made by the Stickley company, you will need to clean it carefully so you keep it in top condition.
