HAND LACING
Hand lacing is a decorative trim done through a time consuming process. It is very intricate, taking the skills of a master. The leather or fabric to receive the decorative trim is laid out and the slits for the lacing are measured for synchronization and then cut. The choice of lace or thread is then woven by hand, in and out of the openings made on the cover, making it a work of art. We have a variety of beautiful hand-laced options such as Explorer Lace, Jennifer Lace, Virtual Lace and Williams Lace.
STITCHING
A traditional process that binds your furniture together, we have developed a variety of new ways to match varying tastes. Optional stitching (shown below) can replace standard stitching. Skip stitch is a decorative element that is applied on the outside of a welt to create a "dotted line" look. Various stitching patterns can create a subtle or prominent effect.
PERFORATION
Perforation is another decorative trim that enhances the look and style of leather, adding dimension and texture. The process consists of leather that is die-cut with a variety of patterns, then applied to the end-back of another--a detail that enhances its beauty and style.
QUILTING
Quilting is a decorative feature applied to the upholstery element of the furniture. Originally done only on fabric, we have taken the art of quilting and perfected it on leather. Because of the extra fill required to create quilts, quilted furniture can provide very luxurious seating. We have a variety of patterns to accent the style of your piece, such as Diamond and Channel.
GIMP
Gimp is a decorative trim applied along the welt line of a piece of furniture. The leather or fabric used is folded and sewn to create a hem. Gimp can be created with the finish side of leather, the reverse (or flesh) side of leather or fabric.
NEUTRA
Neutra detailing is a raised effect typically found on the in-back or out-back of a style. A slit is made on the back of the leather or fabric, and the desired shape is filled with welt and then stitched closed.
EMBROIDERY
Almost any type of design or logo can be embroidered on most Hancock & Moore leathers. The design is digitized by computer and then replicated with stitching on the leather. Embroidery adds a personal and unique touch to a piece of furniture, making it a one-of-a-kind.
BULLION FRINGE
Leather Bullion Fringe is a type of decorative trim applied on the outside of furniture to portray a frayed look. Originally, bullion fringe was made only from plain or crepe cords, but we have taken this concept and applied it to leather, giving it a unique and distinctive look.
