I would've thought fans of English bike parts would have a better grasp of English.
You need to tread carefully here.
Apparently, Brooks leather is quite unlike any other. You believe you have a Brooks saddle, but do you have any evidence to back up your claim? From all testimony here, your claim is doubtful. I suspect your really sitting on an Ideale or a Gyes. Other, inferior saddles claim to be made of leather, but in reality are made from other hides, probably kangaroo or somesuch. There is only one true leather saddle... and it is a Brooks.
I need to ad the mods for forgiveness taking the name of Brooks in vain.
