Details and Care
Fabric: Vegatable tanned buffalo leather
Refrain from carrying excessively heavy items to retain bags shape. When handling use the straps or handles themselves rather than grabbing the fibres
Leather bags are handwoven resulting in unique variations in colour and texture. These characteristics are not flaws but a testament to the handmade quality and natural materials used.
If your bag gets wet, blot the water away immediately with a soft, dry cloth. Never immerse the leather in water or use artificial heat sources like radiators or hairdryers to dry it. Allow the bag to dry naturally.
Waterproofing: Straw is naturally absorbent, so it’s important to protect your bag from moisture. Consider using a fabric protector spray specifically designed for natural fibers. Test it on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn’t discolour the fibre.
Because natural dyes have been used, there may be slight colour bleeding at first—especially with darker shades or in high humidity.
To help set the dye, we recommend leaving your bag in direct sunlight for several hours. The sun’s rays can assist in stabilising the pigments. With regular use, your Ellyla Bag will develop a beautiful, unique patina that enhances its character and charm.
Dust Off Regularly: Use a soft, dry cloth or a soft-bristled brush to gently dust off your bag. This helps remove any surface dirt and prevents buildup. Always store your bag in a dust bag when not in use.
Deep Cleaning: If your bag needs a deeper clean, mix a small amount of mild soap with lukewarm water. Use a soft cloth or sponge, dip it into the soapy water, and gently wipe down the bag. Avoid soaking the straw, as excessive moisture can weaken the fibers.
Drying: After cleaning, let your bag air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Direct sunlight can cause the straw to become brittle and discoloured.
Repairing Minor Damage: If you notice small breaks or frays in the straw, you can carefully trim the loose ends with scissors. For more significant damage, consider taking it to a professional who specialises in repairing natural fibre materials.
