Leather Hand-Embroidered Tatreez

To maintain the structure of the leather-style material and the vibrancy of the hand-stitched embroidery, please follow these specific care instructions.

1. Cleaning

• Do Not Wash: Never submerge the bag in water or use a washing machine, as this will ruin the internal structure and the leather finish.

• For the Leather-Style Body: Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove dust or surface marks.

• For the Embroidery: If the threaded area gets dirty, spot clean only that specific area using a soft cloth, cold water, and a tiny drop of mild detergent. Dab gently—do not scrub—to avoid fraying the threads.

2. Maintenance

• Avoid Moisture: Keep the bag dry. If it gets wet from rain, pat it dry immediately with a clean towel and let it air dry away from direct heat sources (like radiators or hair dryers), which can warp the material.

• Protect from Snags: Be careful with sharp objects, jewellery, or zippers that might catch on the embroidery loops. If a thread pulls loose, simply tuck it back in with a needle; never pull or cut it close to the knot.

3. Storage

• Keep its Shape: When not in use, stuff the bag lightly with acid-free tissue paper or a soft cloth to prevent it from collapsing or creasing.

• Avoid Direct Sun: Store in a cool, shaded place. Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can fade the embroidery colours and make the leather-style material brittle over time.
