Being supple and sturdy, it is perfectly suited for contemporary lifestyles. It is inimitable and unique, created through a painstakingly developed and impeccably executed process. The symbol of Louis Vuitton, Monogram canvas created in 1896, expresses the values and heritage of the House: authenticity, savoir-faire, excellence, and luxury. The risk of transfer may particullary affect small leather goods.Įxposure to sunlight should be avoided as color may fade. Light colors may also patina in time, developing a yellow hue. The Vernis leather should be kept away from any materials that may transfer their color pigments onto the leather (for example magazines, denim, other leathers.). For surface stains, we recommend cleaning with a soft, damp cloth with water.Ĭreated in 1998 for the Spring / Summer fashion show, Monogram Vernis is proposing a vivacious, sparkling and ultra-feminin look. Elements such as oils, make up, perfumes, creams, or sanitizers applied to the leather can compromise its natural beauty and performance capabilities.

These carefully selected leathers can be compromised with the use of any commercial cleaners. To meet Louis Vuitton’s highest quality standards, only the best hides are selected. They may carry natural imperfections, such as veins or wrinkles. Through a rigorous selection process, calfskin and cowhide leathers are chosen for their refinement, suppleness and silky touch. These chemicals can compromise the quality and integrity of the leather as it wears in time. Home remedies to darken the leather such as mink oil, saddle soap, leather lotions, or substances of any kind should be avoided at all costs. Cleaning with any solvents or chemicals is not recommended. Should this leather encounter water, blot immediately with a lint-free light colored, absorbent cloth. Allow the leather to naturally darken and stains will become less apparent.

If the leather becomes stained before patina, do not try to clean it. This patina, along with wear acquired through use, signifies as proof of the product’s authenticity and journey alongside the owner. This delicate, easily scratched leather will develop a rich amber patina, unique to each bag, and a greater suppleness in time. A hallmark of this leather is its transparency, which reveals natural markings such as veins and wrinkles, proving it has not been treated. This natural, vegetable-tanned cowhide leather, is deeply rooted in the History of Louis Vuitton. Storage in boxes or near sources of heat are not recommended as it has a drying effect on the materials. When product is not in use, it is best to store it in the felt provided at purchase in a ventilated area.

This evolution along with the presence of natural aspects such as natural marks, wrinkles, and veins are anticipated and serve as proof of the uniqueness and authenticity of our products.
