ipenned Report post Posted September 11, 2015 I've simply been calling the color on this sofa a rustic orange-brown, but I'd like to get a more accurate color if I were to get a dye for it. Thanks in advance! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ipenned Report post Posted September 11, 2015 Brown! jr But there are so many shades of brown, that when I ask for brown and think of the color in the above image, someone else will think of a completely different shade of brown. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stelmackr Report post Posted September 11, 2015 That leather does not appear to be a single color of dye. The tannery must have treated it with several dye stuffs to obtain the worn/distressed finish. Take a look at several of the upholstery leather suppliers and see what they have to offer as a finished product for your use. I wouldn't know how to evenly dye a full hide to get those colors from bright to dark so evenly dispersed. Good luck. Bob Stelmack Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ipenned Report post Posted September 12, 2015 (edited) After looking around a bit, I believe the color is Cognac with a distressed finish, such as what's on this bag: Edited September 12, 2015 by ipenned Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wild Bill46 Report post Posted September 12, 2015 Cognac it may be ! However, different dyes from different manufactures are called different names ! If you found something that resembles your color and its manufacturer ?(color, name, or number) ? use that ! Most likely that's as close as you will get without a long drawn out hunting process ! Good luck Wild Bill46 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
