What it does
A tree carries several pairs on branching arms, so a range is read as a range rather than as separate pieces.
Leatherette on a earring tree, specifically
Wrapping a thin arm in leatherette thickens it and the join shows along the length. A tree is better in metal or wood; if it must match a leatherette set, match the base only.
Getting the proportion right
Arm spacing decides whether drops tangle. Long drops need more clearance between arms than studs do.
How leatherette is applied to a display form
Leatherette is wrapped and its edges are turned under, so every visible edge is a folded edge rather than a cut one. It will not stretch far, so a tight compound curve is built up in sections with the joins placed where they face away from the customer.
Where it is used
Counter display of a range, and trade-fair stands.
Leatherette under case lighting
It has a slight sheen, so a strong spot will show a highlight along the top of a riser. That is usually flattering on a plain block and unflattering on a curved bust, which is worth knowing before you specify it.
The mistake to avoid
A tree loaded to capacity reads as stock, not as display. Half-filled is usually the better presentation.
Why leatherette
Leatherette display gives a harder, more architectural line than fabric. The grain catches light along an edge, which defines the shape of a riser or a tray.
Wipes clean, which is why it suits trays that go on a counter and come back.

Frequently asked questions
Can earring trees be made in our brand colour?
Yes — the leatherette is matched to a Pantone reference or a physical swatch, and confirmed on a sample.
What sizes do earring trees come in?
They are made to your dimensions. Arm spacing decides whether drops tangle. Long drops need more clearance between arms than studs do.
Is leatherette a good choice for a earring tree?
Wrapping a thin arm in leatherette thickens it and the join shows along the length. A tree is better in metal or wood; if it must match a leatherette set, match the base only.
What goes wrong most often with earring trees?
A tree loaded to capacity reads as stock, not as display. Half-filled is usually the better presentation.
Can earring trees be made to match our boxes?
Yes — the same leatherette and the same colour across boxes and display, ordered in one run.
