Caring for Your Bag by Material

Italian Leather: Timeless Luxury, Effortless Care
Our Italian leather is known for its softness, durability, and natural beauty. Follow these steps to protect and maintain its elegance:

✔️ Dust Gently: Wipe away dirt with a soft, dry cloth to keep the surface flawless.
✔️ Blot Spills Immediately: Use a clean, absorbent cloth to blot (not rub!) spills and prevent staining.
✔️ Deep Clean with Care: For a thorough clean, use a slightly damp cloth—never soak the leather.
✔️ Use a Leather Cleaner: Apply a high-quality leather cleaner with a soft cloth, gently rubbing in circular motions.
✔️ Condition for Softness: Maintain its luxurious feel with a leather conditioner, preventing cracks and dryness.

✔️ Avoid Sun & Heat: Keep away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, and humidity to prevent fading or drying out.
✔️ Test First: Always test any product on a small, hidden area before full application to ensure compatibility.

🌱 EPUL (Eco-Friendly Polyurethane Leather): Effortless Elegance
Our EPUL leather is an eco-conscious, durable alternative that offers the same luxe feel with less maintenance.

✔️ Wipe & Refresh: A simple damp cloth is all you need to remove dirt or spills. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution.
✔️ Say No to Harsh Chemicals: Avoid alcohol-based cleaners, as they can degrade the material.
✔️ Keep it Cool: Store away from high heat or direct sunlight, which can alter texture and color.
✔️ Protect & Store: Keep in a dust bag when not in use to maintain its smooth, pristine finish.

🌿 Raffia: Nature’s Lightweight Luxury

Our handcrafted raffia bags are eco-friendly, breathable, and effortlessly stylish. Keep them looking their best with these simple steps:

✔️ Keep Dry: Raffia is a natural fiber—avoid excessive moisture or heavy rain to prevent warping.
✔️ Gentle Cleaning: Remove dirt using a soft brush or dry cloth—never soak in water.
✔️ Store Flat: To maintain shape, store flat in a cool, dry place. Avoid cramming it into tight spaces.

General Care Tips for All Bags

✔️ Maintain Shape: When storing, gently stuff your bag with tissue paper or soft fabric to help retain its form.
✔️ Use a Dust Bag: Protect from scratches, dust, and fading by keeping your bag in the provided dust bag.
✔️ Avoid Overloading: Overstuffing can strain handles, distort shape, or stretch materials—carry only what’s needed.
✔️ Handle with Clean Hands: Oils and lotions can transfer onto materials, so always handle your bag with clean, dry hands

Special Care for Added Longevity

Stain Removal: For tough stains, consult a professional leather cleaner rather than using household products.
Hardware Shine: Gently polish metal hardware with a soft cloth to maintain its brilliance and luster. Avoid harsh abrasives that can cause scratches.
Zippers & Closures: Keep them running smoothly by occasionally wiping them with a dry cloth to remove dust and buildup.
