There is some special waxy stuff you can buy that is used to "fill" leather scratches, it comes in various colours and can be mixed, a bit like different coloured putty, to obtain a match. Left for a while it "attaches" itself to the leather chemically. You can also get a sort of leather "paint" to get a perfect colour match.

This was done to our leather suite when a prat boyfriend of our daughter managed to badly scratch it. Paid for by house insurance and unless you know where to look you would not spot the repair.

This was the company that did the work
