Aftercare

Care Guide

A slower approach to care keeps leather, finish, and structure looking composed for years rather than a single season.

Best Practice

Store pieces away from direct heat, condition only when the surface begins to feel dry, and let marks settle naturally before over-treating them.

Daily Handling

Use a soft dry cloth to remove surface dust, avoid prolonged direct sun, and keep leather away from radiators or damp storage. Small habits do more than aggressive cleaning routines.

Conditioning

Apply a small amount of quality conditioner every few months only when the material looks or feels dry. Work lightly in circular motions, let it absorb, then buff with a clean cloth.

Water & Stains

If a piece becomes wet, blot it gently and allow it to dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat. For oil, ink, or set-in staining, professional leather care is the safer route.

Patina

Vegetable-tanned leather evolves with use. Soft shifts in tone, touch, and finish are part of the material story and should be read as depth of character, not damage.
