Protect from the elements: Keep your purse away from direct sunlight, heat, humidity, and rain. If your purse does get wet, dry it immediately with a soft cloth.
Clean gently: Use a dry cloth to wipe down your purse after each use. Avoid solvent cleaners.
Apply oil: To preserve the wood, apply a food-grade mineral oil, butcher block oil, or walnut oil 3-4 times a year.
Avoid excessive force: Don't squeeze, grip, throw, sit on, or drop your purse.
Store properly: When not in use, store your purse in its packaging bag or box.
Treat stains quickly: Use a powdered substance like baking soda or cornstarch to soak up liquid stains.
Avoid heavy objects: Don't pack heavy or bulky objects inside your purse.
Have it professionally cleaned: If your purse has severe water stains or other marks, have it professionally cleaned and restored.
