When leather is produced it is dyed with aniline dyes before any other surface finishes are added.

Aniline style leathers (those that have no pigment coating added) are more prone to fading from sunlight and in some cases this can happen quite quickly and quite dramatically. It is an easy problem to fix as Aniline dyes can be used to restore the colour

Using a quality leather protector that contains UV protection can help to slow this process down.
