LEATHER CARE INSTRUCTIONS
At Douglas and Daisy, our leather pieces are crafted to be loved and worn for years to come. With the right care, your leather will age beautifully, developing its own unique character over time.
Everyday Care
-
Gently wipe your leather item with a soft, dry cloth after use to remove dust and surface dirt.
-
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, heat, or moisture, as this can cause fading, drying, or warping.
Protecting Your Leather
-
We recommend using a high-quality leather protector before first use and reapplying periodically to help guard against stains and moisture.
-
Always test any product on a small, hidden area first.
Cleaning
-
For light marks, use a slightly damp cloth and gently blot - do not rub.
-
For deeper stains, consult a professional leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals, alcohol-based products, or household cleaners, as these can damage the leather.
Conditioning
-
Over time, leather may dry out. Use a leather conditioner every few months to keep it soft and supple.
-
Apply sparingly with a soft cloth and allow it to absorb naturally.
Storage
-
Store your leather items in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
-
When not in use, keep them in the breathable Douglas and Daisy dust bag to maintain their shape and finish.
-
Avoid storing leather in plastic, as it needs to breathe.
Natural Characteristics
-
Our leather is a natural material, and variations in colour, texture, and grain are part of its beauty - these are not imperfections but a hallmark of genuine leather.
By caring for your Douglas and Daisy leather piece, you’ll ensure it continues to look and feel beautiful for many years to come.
