Care for Leather Handbags

How to care for a leather handbag depends on the characteristics of the leather it is made of. Because of the frequent use of fragile leathers for fine leather goods, we recommend the following products :

If necessary, begin by cleaning the leather (like you would wash your hands before applying an cream). Use Cleaning Regenerating Soap Avel (do not use on patent leather ), carefully test before on a hidden part. Afterwards choose one the products listed below :

- non fragile rustic leather : choose Renovator Shoe Polish SAPHIR. If your leather is worn, you can also alternate with Cream Renovator AVEL which contains more waxes and exists in different colours to freshen up the colour of your leather.
- smooth leathers, box, lamb : use Renovator Shoe Polish NAPPA
- ostrich, peccary, matt leather : Delicate Shoe Polish Cream SAPHIR
- Barenia, glazed leather : choose Shoe Polish Gel Cristal
- crocodile, reptile : choose Shoe Polish REPTAN for care and Varnish RIFE Saphir for giving new shine to or re-color the varnish (also available in black).

- cordovan leather: Cream Shoe Polish CORDOVAN Saphir Médaille d'Or

- patent leather : Varnish RIFE Saphir (or Reflex Médaille d'Or).

- braided, pearly, metalized leather: Gel Shoe Polish

For protection and future easy cleaning, apply the anti-stain treatment Super INVULNER .

To recolour small areas, use the Renovating Cream.

In case of a more substantial recoloration, consult the advice card " Re-colouring Fine Leather Goods.
