CARE & ADVICE

CALF LEATHER

What is vegetable-tanned calf leather? To make vegetable tanned calf leather, artisans employ natural tannins from plants, avoiding harmful chemicals. The process begins with carefully selected calf hides, which are soaked in a mixture of water and vegetable tannins for weeks. This gentle approach enhances the leather's unique grain, ensuring an honest result which proudly displays the hide’s natural marks and character.

REGULAR CARE FOR LEATHER

Regular care is crucial to preserving the leather’s lifespan and achieving patina. We also recommend avoiding overexposure to heat, light and humidity during wear and storage.

To clean the leather, we advice using a soft, damp cloth and swiping over the piece evenly. Cleaning should always be followed by an undyed leather conditioner or gentle leather balm. Regular conditioning nurtures the leather's suppleness and natural flexibility and will help develop a beautiful patina with time.

REGULAR CARE FOR RATTAN

To clean the rattan, we recommend using a soft and damp cloth followed by linseed oil, applied using a small soft brush. This is to moisturize the rattan and encourage the fibers' natural flexibility. We recommend storing sharp objects such as keys in a protective case to avoid friction and cuts.
