Leather
products care
Leather is a natural material and,
if properly cared for, will maintain its beauty for
many years. Direct exposure to sunlight can cause leather
to fade, so always protect leather from sunlight and
do not put your leather product close to direct heat.
Caring
for your Cowhide Rug or Cowhide Pillows
Concerning
product care, cowhide rugs and cowhide pillows are very
easily cared for. Simple soap and water on a sponge
will deal with most problems. Steam cleaning your cowhide
rug, cowhide pillow and custom cowhide area rug will
also work as long as you don’t soak the leather
backing. You can also vacuum the carpet in order to
get it clean.
WARNING!
NEVER USE ALCOHOL OR SOLVENTS TO CLEAN LEATHERS
Maintenance
of Leather Products for decoration purposes
For
normal maintenance over the years, we suggest the following:
- Dust
your leather product weekly just as you would a glass
table with a dry clean towel.
- Once
a month clean your leather product with a soft damp
cloth taking care not to soak the leather.
- If
the leather product requires a more thorough treatment,
use a soft damp cloth and a light soapy solution.
Apply the solution in circular motions until the dirt
is removed. Repeat this process using clean water
if necessary. Do NOT use a hair dryer or any other
domestic appliance to dry your leather product.
- Do
not use domestic products, polishes, wax polishes
or saddle soap to clean
your leather product as this can damage the product.
- Do
not let belts, buckles, studs, zips or any sharp object
come into direct
contact with the leather as this can damage the product.
- These
cleaning instructions ONLY apply to leather products
and do NOT apply to suede or other fabric ranges.

Note:
All leather will stain from liquids, body oils, and perspiration.
We recommend you clean any stains immediately. For stubborn
spots and stains, blot excess liquid immediately with a clean,
absorbent sponge or cloth. If necessary, use a slightly dampened
white cloth and wipe the entire affected area gently two or
three times by blotting dry with soft cloth. Do not use a
hair dryer to accelerate drying time. Repeat this process
as needed and let air dry naturally.
We recommend: Always test-clean on a hidden area of
leather to confirm results before you attempt to apply a treatment.
On any leather, there can be some transfer of colour when
applying a slightly damped white cloth to stubborn stains.
So do not rub it hard, just gentle smooth strokes.
