Each Fléu bag is crafted from meticulously selected, ethically sourced calfskin—valued for its natural beauty, softness, and durability. Rhéa features a smooth calfskin exterior and a contrasting suede interior, both of which are natural materials that require thoughtful care. The presence of veins, subtle marks, or tonal variations are not imperfections, but unique characteristics of the leather’s authenticity.
To preserve the quality and appearance of your bag over time, we recommend the following:
- Protect both the exterior and interior from moisture, oils, hand creams, sanitizers, perfumes, and makeup. If contact occurs, gently blot with a clean, soft, light-colored cloth—never rub.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and keep the bag away from heat sources, as both leather and suede are sensitive to environmental stress.
- Take special care with the suede interior. Suede is particularly delicate and prone to color transfer and surface marks. To maintain its texture, you may gently brush it with a suede brush if needed, always following the grain.
- Store your bag in its original Fléu dust bag when not in use. Avoid high temperatures, humidity, or poorly ventilated spaces. Do not store in plastic.
With mindful care, your Fléu bag will age gracefully, developing a rich patina that speaks to its quality and your story.
