Handbag Care
Take care of your handbag and you will enjoy it for seasons to come. Cleaning in an appropriate matter suitable for the material is important. Using a soft damp cloth for most materials is sufficient, the use of leather care products for the fine leather pieces are suggested.
Hardware, zippers, closures and embellishments are designed to function for the needs of most women. Days or occasions which require carrying the weight of a kitchen sink, may we suggest a wheeled suitcase to save the stitching and finish of your bag, and the weight of the world on your shoulder.
