FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of the bag?

The bag measures 27 cm in length at the opening, 19 cm in height, and 11 cm in width at the base.

Can I use both straps at the same time?

No, the bag is designed to be used with one strap attached at a time. The two straps are interchangeable.

How do I clean the leather straps and trim?

The zebu leather trim and straps should be cleaned with a slightly damp cloth. For dirtier areas, use a neutral soap sparingly and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry.

Is the raffia material waterproof?

No, raffia is a natural fiber and is not waterproof. Avoid exposing the bag to excessive moisture or rain.

Will the color of the leather change over time?

Yes, the zebu leather is tanned using a vegetable process, which means it may develop a natural patina and darken slightly over time with exposure to light and handling. This is a natural characteristic of vegetable-tanned leather.

What does 'subtle variations' mean for a handmade bag?

It means that due to the handmade nature of the product, no two bags will be exactly identical. There might be slight differences in the weave, color tone, or exact shape, reflecting the unique touch of the artisan who crafted it.

What is the best way to store the bag when not in use?

Store the bag in a cool, dry place. It is recommended to stuff it with tissue paper or a soft cloth to help maintain its shape and prevent creasing.

Troubleshooting

Strap clasp is difficult to attach or detach

Ensure the clasp is properly aligned with the D-ring and apply gentle, steady pressure. If stiffness persists, check for any debris in the clasp mechanism.

Raffia fibers appear frayed or loose

Gently trim any single loose fibers with small, sharp scissors. Avoid pulling on them. For significant fraying, consult care instructions or a professional.

Leather trim shows minor scuffs

Light scuffs on vegetable-tanned leather can often be buffed out with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper marks, consider a leather conditioner specifically designed for vegetable-tanned leather.

Bag shape seems distorted after storage

Gently reshape the bag by hand. Stuff it with tissue paper or a soft cloth to help it regain its intended form. Allow it to rest in a climate-controlled environment.

Care: To maintain the beauty and longevity of your Mihaja bag:
