What's Chinese Embroidery

Chinese embroidery has a long history since the Neolithic age, which can be traced back to about 5000–6000 years ago. During the Sui and Tang dynasties, only royalty could use embroidery products. Throughout the Yuan, Ming, and Qing Dynasties, embroidery continued to flourish, branching out from royalty into popular culture and developing into different styles and genres. Chinese handmade embroidery is famous for its exquisite skills and rich artistic expression, and is known as the "Pearl of Oriental Art". Chinese embroidery is an important intangible cultural heritage of mankind.

Care & Maintenance

Caring for a genuine leather embroidered bag requires attention to the following points:

1. Keep it dry: Avoid exposing the bag to moisture or rain, as a damp environment can lead to mold or discoloration of the leather.
2. Avoid direct sunlight: Try to keep the bag away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from becoming stiff, fading, or cracking.
3. Regular cleaning: Use a professional leather cleaner or a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away surface stains. Avoid using cleaners with alcohol or harsh chemicals.
4. Protective spray: You can use a specialized leather protective spray to help shield the leather from stains and moisture.
5. Handle with care: Avoid pulling or squeezing the bag forcefully to prevent damage to the embroidered parts.
6. Storage precautions: When not in use, store the bag in a well-ventilated, dry place, and consider placing a moisture absorber inside.
7. Regular conditioning: Use a professional leather conditioner or wax for periodic maintenance to keep the leather soft and glossy.

Please note that different types of genuine leather may require different care methods. It is advisable to choose the appropriate care method based on the specific material of the bag.
