Here are some points by which we can differentiate between real leather and synthetic leather.
1 Real Leather is made from animal hides, such as cattle, buffalo, or oxen whereas synthetic leather is made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polyurethane (PU), which are plastic-based materials.
2 When we touch leather, we feel soft. It is smooth and flexible. Synthetic products are a little harder and have a plastic feeling.
3 We can recognize leather at first glance by texture and the pores.
4 The most well-known factor is price. Original leather products are more expensive as compare to artificial leather products.
5 By burning a small piece of leather, through smell, we can find out real one.
