Your Del Mar home may very well have hardwood floors and hard wood stairs.  Although hardwoods are beautiful they often can be slippery and so are often covered by carpeting on stairways.  But carpeting often is not an aesthetically pleasing choice, but what else is there?  Leather, leather is not a material most people think about for a flooring material but it has a long history as such and makes a beautiful covering.  On stairs leather makes a good less slippery surface. Leather is a wonderful natural material that you instinctively want to reach out and touch,  it feels good on bare feet going up stairs, and it's sturdy enough to protect wooden floors underneath. The leather stair treads be especially ornate with laser engraved borders. The manufacturers use computer controlled etching, so that any design you choose can be engraved.  Over the years with care leather floor coverings will take on a a rich beautiful look and provide years of enjoyment.
