Main: Real Leather, Lining: Fabric. Dimensions (L) 36cm (H) 26cm (W) 11cm. Leather is a natural fibre in that it is not man-made. For most leather bags, applying a leather cream or wax is a good idea, as it adds a layer of protection to the bag’s finish, repelling superficial scratches and scuffs. Choose a cream containing natural waxes: they give a rich look and act as a barrier against dirt and moisture. All products made from natural leather will age with time. Just like our skin, it will need moisturising and caring, if they’re to be kept in tip-top condition throughout the years. This ageing effect is called the bags ‘Patina’, it’s a very cherished and admired effect, and the effect is almost impossible to replicate accurately without submitting it to the natural wear and tear that leather bags go through from everyday use. This natural ageing process adds character to a bag and gives it a life-story of its very own, every mark, scratch and crack tells a tale. Always do spot testing before you apply any product on the leather. If you are applying a waterproofing product, then it’s strongly suggested that you first use a care product to help lock in moisture and to keep the fibres of the skin supple before making it waterproof. Only apply the waterproof to areas that will be exposed to moisture.
