Everyday Care

Looking after your leather goods starts with day-to-day care. By following just a few simple rules, you can avoid unnecessary wear and tear and extend the life of your accessories for years:

• Leather is a skin, and it can stretch. Avoid overfilling your handbag, purse or wallet to maintain its original silhouette

• Take extra care with leather items you use often. Take the time each week to wipe away dust and spots with a soft cloth or brush

• Scratches can detract from a flawlessly crafted piece. Take care to avoid contact with heavily embellished clothes, sharp surfaces, or chunky jewellery when you are out and about.

• Wet leather requires extra care, so if rain is forecast, remember to take an umbrella

Storage 

You may be asking yourself how should I store my handbags?

Storing your leather appropriately is one of the easiest ways you can prevent damage and maintain a high-quality finish:

•  Store leather away from direct sunlight as this can cause fading

• Store handbags in a dust bag to avoid scratches

• Avoid using plastic bags, they prevent good ventilation

• Store leather away from artificial sources of heat, e.g. radiators can cause leather to dry and crack
