In the product information, the following sentence is included:

“The outer edges are covered with a durable, coated, leather-like material.”

We have the following questions regarding this:

1. What exactly is meant by “outer edges”? The sides of the sofa? The sides of the cushions? Does this also include areas such as the armrests where you might rest your arm or head?

2. Which outer edges are referred to? All of them? Just the sofa or also the cushions?

It is important to us that the areas that come into contact with the skin are made of genuine leather.

Could someone perhaps help us with this?

Kind regards and have a nice evening
