product care for vegetable tanned leather 

When your product is made out of or contains partially vegetable-tanned leather it is good to learn something about the aging process. Over time, and with proper care this leather becomes stronger and acquires a beautiful rich patina.

Veg-tanned leather, when unprotected, is easily stained by water. Unless you’re down to embrace the stains, we recommend keeping it dry or treating it with a water-resistant balm. But even then..you cannot really prevent your item from staining.

With exposure to sunlight and normal use, the leather will darken in color and deepen in tone beautifully that will give unique characteristics. Keep your leather accessory preferably out of direct sunlight and away from heat, like radiators. When not in use, try to keep it stored in the delivered dust bag in a dry place. When wet, let it dry naturally.

Another element that affects the color and texture of veg-tanned leather is oil, especially from your hands. If you are using and handling your bag every day, the color will darken and the texture will soften.

To remove dust, stains, or dirt, wipe down your leather accessory with a clean dry soft cloth. You can give your veg-tan leather some extra care once in a while with a suitable natural balm. Apply a light coat and leave to dry in natural air, out of direct sunlight.

The rest is all a natural process which to me is the most beautiful about veg-tan leather. Your accessory will become your own beautiful special unique item, which you can enjoy for the rest of your life.
