Care Instructions

Our pieces are handcrafted from liquid latex, cured and formed by hand. It is built to last, but latex is a living material. Please handle with intention.

    • Wipe the exterior and interior gently with a soft, lint-free cloth dampened with cool water.

    • For deeper cleaning, use a pH-neutral, fragrance-free soap diluted in cool water. Never apply soap directly to the surface.

    • Wipe clean, then buff dry immediately with a clean cloth. Do not leave water pooled on the surface or inside the bag. Keep the back open until fully dried.

    • Never machine wash. Never submerge.

    • To restore and maintain the signature latex sheen, apply a latex-specific silicone oil to a cloth first, never directly onto the bag. There is a small spray bottle with silicone oil included in the package.

    • Buff in light, circular motions.

    • Avoid petroleum-based products, oils, or generic leather conditioners as these degrade latex over time.

  •  The inside of the bag is unlined latex and will become tacky over time. This is

    normal behaviour for the material.

     Apply a small amount of silicone oil from the included bottle to a soft cloth and

    wipe the interior lightly, paying attention to corners and seams where

    stickiness concentrates.

     Do this whenever the interior feels tacky or after extended periods of storage.

     Do not use talcum powder or cornstarch as substitutes. These can degrade

    the latex surface and trap moisture.

     Allow the interior to dry fully before closing the bag for storage or usage.

  • The metal frame sits unbound between layers of fabric & latex, so it may move in position. If it shifts, simply ease it back into place.

    The handle is metallic and may tarnish with prolonged exposure to moisture or perfume.

    • Dry the handle thoroughly after any contact with water.

    • Avoid contact with perfume, hairspray, salt water and alcohol-based products.

    • Polish occasionally with a dry microfibre cloth.

  • ● Store in a cool, dark, dry place away from direct sunlight, UV light, and heat

    sources. UV exposure causes latex to discolor and degrade.

    ● Do not store in airtight plastic bags. Allow the material to breathe, use a dust

    bag or a breathable cloth pouch.

    ● Store flat. Do not fold or compress the bag for extended periods, as latex can

    develop permanent creases. If your bag gets deformed you can use warm

    water on a cloth and apply it to the crease. You can also use a heavy object

    and put it on the flattened bag to get rid of deformations.

    ● Keep away from copper, bronze, and untreated metals, which can cause

    irreversible staining on latex and degradation of the material.

  • Latex develops character with time. Minor patina and variation in sheen are not flaws

    — they are evidence of a material that is genuinely alive. With proper care, your

    SKINLESS piece will remain a statement for years.
