Leather Care Instructions for Handbags
1. Regular Cleaning:
- Gently wipe your leather handbag with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt.
- For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution and gently wipe the surface. Avoid soaking the leather
2. Conditioning:
- Apply a quality leather conditioner every few months to keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out.
- Test the conditioner on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn’t alter the colour
3. Avoid Excessive Moisture:
- Keep your handbag away from water and rain. If it gets wet, gently pat it dry with a soft cloth and let it air dry naturally.
- Do not use a hairdryer or any direct heat source to dry the leather
4. Storage:
- Store your handbag in a cool, dry place when not in use.
- Use a dust bag or a soft cotton pillowcase to protect it from dust and scratches.
- Stuff the handbag with tissue paper to maintain its shape
5. Avoid Harsh Chemicals:
- Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or oils on the leather as they can damage the material
6. Sunlight Exposure:
- Limit exposure to direct sunlight to prevent fading and drying of the leather
7. Handling Stains:
- Address stains immediately with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains, consider professional leather cleaning services
