When choosing which size bag to go for, think about what you’d like to use it for. Do you need a little clutch for your evening essentials, or a big bag with more space to fill?

The dimensions for all our bags are listed on each product description, and if you need any more help you can always email us or ask on Twitter.

Show your bag a little TLC and it will stay beautiful for years to come. Wipe your bag with a damp cloth to remove marks and never use any detergents on it.

Leather is a natural product and will absorb water, so none of our bags are completely waterproof and should be kept away from water.

If your bag does get wet then dry off any surface water as soon as possible and let it dry naturally. Make sure your bag is completely dry before using it again to avoid damaging the leather. Getting your bag very wet may cause the leather to swell, which can discolour or damage the surface of the leather.

We’ve made every effort to ensure the leather we source matches the images on our website, but please be aware that leather is a natural product and in some cases there may be variation in shade and texture. This will not affect the quality of your bag – it will still be just as beautiful!

As all of our items are handmade to order, we will always do our best to make yours perfect. If you have a special request for your item – like a shorter strap or different colour stitching – just email us at [email protected] and we’ll do what we can for you.
