are bound to be very premium as well as expensive. This calls for proper care
for your exquisite leather bag that you might have bought after much thought
and money saving. Here are top tips to care for your Italian leather
handbags to make them last for a lifetime.
·
If your leather bag is designed
out of Italian lambskin, it must be buttery smooth with a shiny surface. While
some are in smooth skin, others might sport embossed skins which are made from
stamping technique with the help of extreme heat. Whatever be the texture, leather bags should
be stored in a dust protective fabric bag. One can use cotton or tissue paper
to fill the bags, so the shape is retained.
·
Always store them on the top
shelves of your cupboards in an upright position. Never let them encounter damp
environment. Store them in cool and dry closet.
·
For cleaning leather bags, use
moist coon cloth dipped in warm water. However, wipe them clean without leaving
any dampness behind. Using a circular motion helps in cleaning off the dust particles,
if any
·
Keep bags in a place where
there are no substances that leave a residue. Keep them away from perfumes or
other chemicals like hairsprays.
·
Ink pens can be devastating to
leather bags. Beware of leaking ink pens in your leather bags. Always keep a leather
cleaner and conditioner handy, incase such thing occurs.
·
If your bag gets drenched in
rain, do not fret. Let them dry naturally and keep them away from heat.
·
Keep your leather bags away
from any sharp objects such as knives. These can be harming your bag by poking
into them.
Since Italian leather bags are of superior quality,
they are often touted as being designer bags. Often one can find discounted
leather bags either because they are on sale or there were too many of the same
type from the same brand. Always purchase Italian leather
bags from genuine companies that have created a factor of trust
in the market. Many of these allow for a full money back guarantee if you are dissatisfied
with the product.
Thanks to the versatility of leather, you can choose
from a tote bag, a clutch, an attaché case or even a handbag that doubles as a
diaper bag. No matter what the occasion, Italian bags are a great way to step
up your style quotient while still being functional. If you are looking for
classic leather bags, look for clean lines that impart a refined look. Whatever
Italian bag you choose, keep it nicely to cherish it for a long time.
