Our exquisite collection of sling bags, mini bags, shoulder bags, tote bags, wallets, and business bags is crafted from the finest Italian leathers, each with its unique texture and character. In this guide, We’ll explore the five distinct leather textures we use—Ostrich, Croco, Smooth Calf, Python, and Pebbled/Grainy—and provide tips on how to care for them to maintain their beauty and longevity.

 

Character : Recognized for its distinctive quill pattern, Ostrich leather is soft, durable, and highly sought after for its unique look and feel.

 

Care Tips : 

Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away any dirt or dust. Avoid using harsh chemicals.

Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for exotic leathers to keep the leather supple.

Storage:Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and drying out.

2. Croco Leather

Character : Croco leather mimics the scales of a crocodile, offering a luxurious and exotic appearance with a glossy finish.

Care Tips:

Cleaning: Wipe with a dry cloth to remove dust. For deeper cleaning, use a leather cleaner suitable for glossy finishes.

Conditioning: Use a conditioner sparingly to maintain the leather's sheen without making it overly oily.

Storage: Keep it in a dust bag when not in use to protect the surface from scratches.

3. Smooth Calf Leather

Care Tips:

Cleaning: Gently wipe with a clean, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild leather cleaner.

Conditioning: Regularly apply a light leather conditioner to maintain its softness and prevent cracking.

Storage: Store in a dust bag, and avoid placing heavy items on top of it to prevent indentations.


4. Python Leather

Character : Python leather is characterized by its unique scale pattern and flexible, lightweight nature, offering a distinctive look for luxury products

Care Tips:

Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the scales. Avoid getting it wet, as moisture can damage the scales.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally wrapped in a breathable cloth to avoid humidity buildup.

5. Pebbled/Grainy Leather
