Product Information

Full details

This Coccinelle shoulder bag is designed for the adult female who values sophisticated style and practical durability. Its key benefit lies in its weather-resistant, supple leather construction inspired by traditional Japanese Furoshiki cloths, offering a blend of elegance and resilience. A potential caveat is that the smooth leather, while treated, may still require careful handling to maintain its pristine appearance over time. This bag features a unique knotted and draped design, metal accents, and a lightweight, feminine aesthetic.

FAQs

What does 'Furoshiki' refer to in the bag's design?

Furoshiki refers to traditional Japanese wrapping cloths used for carrying items. The bag's design is inspired by the artful knotting and draping techniques associated with these cloths.

How water-resistant is the leather?

The leather is treated with resins to provide a slight waterproofing and weather resistance. It can handle light rain or splashes, but should not be submerged or exposed to heavy downpours for extended periods.

Can I use regular leather cleaners on this bag?

It is recommended to use cleaners and conditioners specifically designed for smooth, oiled leathers. Regular cleaners might be too harsh and could damage the special oil and resin treatment.

Is this bag suitable for carrying a laptop or tablet?

This shoulder bag is designed for daily essentials like a phone, wallet, and keys. It is generally not recommended for larger items like laptops or tablets, as it may stretch the leather or compromise the bag's structure and intended design.

How should I store the bag when not in use?

Store the bag in its original dust bag, away from direct sunlight and heat. Stuff it with tissue paper to help it retain its shape.

What is the best way to clean the metal accents?

Gently wipe the metal accents with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or metal polishes, which could scratch or damage the finish.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dull or dry

Apply a specialized leather conditioner designed for smooth, oiled leathers. Ensure you test the product on an inconspicuous area first.

Minor scuffs or scratches

For light marks, try gently buffing the area with a soft, clean cloth. For deeper scratches, consult a professional leather repair specialist.

Bag loses its shape when empty

Stuff the bag with tissue paper or a soft cloth when storing it to help maintain its original form.

Discoloration from contact with other materials

Avoid prolonged contact with dark or heavily dyed fabrics, especially when the bag is new or has been exposed to moisture, as color transfer can occur.
