ABOUT THE LEATHER

Being a natural material, leather often presents minor marks and variations inherent to the hide. While mass produced or high end bags  eliminate those imperfections, we are committed to minimize waste and we see as part of the unique character of the material. We believe it is possible to make bags that are beautiful without supporting the wastefulness of the handbag industry.

DIMENSIONS

Because every bag is handmade, and in an effort to limit waste, dimensions may vary slightly (+/- 1" ). Please let us know prior to placing an order if you have any concerns and we’ll be happy to check.

MADE TO ORDER

There is no extra charge for an item that is made to order (that is, to the existing specifications).

PACKAGING

In an effort to limit waste, we use recycled packaging whenever possible. Please consider reusing or recycling our shipping cartons. 

CUSTOM ORDERS

Custom orders are welcome and quoted on a case by case basis. Feel free to email us with any special requests. Please be aware that custom specifications take extra time and thus usually cost extra. Custom orders must be prepaid. They are not returnable. If you like the style of one our bags but would like it in the leather of another model we carry, we’d be happy to accommodate, however this would be considered custom and would not be returnable.

WHOLESALE

We do not sell wholesale any longer. 

LEATHER BAG CARE INSTRUCTIONS

To clean your leather, try using leather cleaning product or saddle soap. For persistent stains please consult a professional leather cleaner. Make sure to condition your item at least twice a year with either natural oils (such as mink oil or neatsfoot oil) or a leather conditioner.

Note: Distressed leathers should only be cleaned by professional cleaners. You may want to use a waterproofing spray to preserve their finish. 

REPAIRS

We guarantee our craftsmanship. If an item appears to be defective within the first year of purchase, please contact us and we’ll gladly replace or fix it for you free of charge. After the first year we are happy to fix items distressed from normal wear and tear for an additional cost, simply contact us for a quote.
