FAQs

What is the Manta Charm inspired by?

The Manta Charm is inspired by Alexander McQueen's iconic 'Manta' bag silhouette, reimagining it in a compact charm format.

What material is the Manta Charm made of?

The Manta Charm is crafted from 100% lamb leather.

What are the dimensions of the Manta Charm?

The dimensions are approximately 12 cm in length, 7.7 cm in height, and 2 cm in width.

Can it hold a lot of items?

Due to its compact size, it is designed to hold very small essentials such as coins, earbuds, or a single key.

How should I clean the Manta Charm?

Clean the charm with a soft, dry cloth only. Avoid water and cleaning agents.

Is the hardware made of real silver?

The hardware is described as 'silver-finish brass,' meaning it has a silver coating over brass, not solid silver.

Can I attach it to any bag?

Yes, the charm can be attached to most bags, backpacks, or keyrings using its hardware loop.

Troubleshooting

Hardware appears tarnished

Gently polish the silver-finish brass hardware with a soft, dry jewelry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Leather shows minor scuffs

Gently buff the affected area with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper scuffs, consult a professional leather care specialist.

Zipper is stiff

Gently work the zipper back and forth. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant, sparingly, to the teeth.
