FAQs

What material is the Paul Costelloe Ara Leather Purse made from?

The purse is crafted from soft, supple leather.

What are the dimensions of the purse?

The dimensions are Depth: 2.5cm, Width: 16cm, Height: 9cm.

Does it have specific compartments for different items?

Yes, it features separate sections for cards and notes, as well as a clear ID slot.

Is this purse suitable for carrying a lot of cash?

It has sections for notes, but its compact size is best suited for a moderate amount of cash and essential cards. It may not be ideal for those who carry a very large quantity.

Does it come with a gift box?

Yes, the purse is neatly presented in a gift box.

How should I clean the leather purse?

For general cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth. For minor marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used. Periodically apply a leather conditioner.

Can I fit a checkbook inside?

Given the dimensions (W:16cm H:9cm), a standard-sized checkbook is unlikely to fit comfortably. It is designed more for cards and folded notes.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or catching

Gently run a graphite pencil along the teeth of the zipper. Avoid using excessive force. If the issue persists, consult a leather goods specialist.

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner using a soft cloth. Allow it to absorb, then buff gently.

Stains on the leather

For fresh, minor stains, try blotting immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, consult a professional leather cleaner. Avoid rubbing, which can spread the stain.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This purse is designed to hold standard-sized cards, banknotes, and identification. Its internal sections are sized to accommodate common card formats and folded currency.

Care: To maintain the quality and suppleness of the leather:

  1. Wipe Clean: Use a soft, dry cloth for regular dusting.
  2. Damp Cloth: For minor marks, use a slightly damp cloth and wipe gently. Allow to air dry naturally.
  3. Conditioning: Periodically (every 6-12 months, depending on use), use a leather conditioner specifically designed for soft leathers. Apply sparingly with a clean cloth.
  4. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh detergents as they can damage the leather.
  5. Storage: When not in use, store the purse in its original gift box or a dust bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or drying out.
