    The band sets the price, not the colour. Each upholstery option covers a band of Leolux price groups and is priced at the highest group in that band. Once you order, we'll go through the fabrics and leathers in your band with you and confirm your exact choice before production starts. If you choose one from a lower-priced group, we refund the difference. Negev leather is available on request.

    I bought a very nice sofa for an even better price in the TFU design shop. Lovely place to nose around. The guys are super friendly and helpful. They have a very good feeling for style and design. I trust them to refurbish/ decorate my house if I put it up for sale or rental.
