The Art of Caring for Your Leather Products
Perfect Imperfections: The Unique Beauty of Every Hide
At Behar Home, we believe in the magic of nature—where every piece of leather has a story to tell. We use 100% bovine leather that, just like the animals it comes from, reflects its own identity through natural variations in grain and tone. Far from being flaws, these marks are the essence of our products: each one is unrepeatable, authentic, and carries with it the beauty of perfect imperfections.
Caring for Your Lifetime Companion: Care Recommendations
Leather is a noble, living material that evolves and adapts with time. With proper care, your Behar Home piece will stay with you for years to come. Here are some essential tips:
Leather Care
To keep your product in optimal condition, occasionally clean the surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. If a stain appears, absorb the liquid immediately with a cloth or paper towel, moving from the outside in to prevent spreading. Important: never dry leather under direct sunlight or with a hairdryer, as heat can damage it. Also avoid placing it near heat sources or UV light, which may accelerate wear.
Fabric Care
If your product includes fabric, clean it with lukewarm water and a small amount of mild soap. Test first on a small corner to ensure the material reacts well. After cleaning, remove excess moisture and let it air dry at room temperature, avoiding hairdryers or other heat sources.
Storage
If storing your piece for an extended period, avoid humid environments and never keep it in plastic bags, as this may compromise the quality of the leather. Do not place heavy objects on top, since they may leave permanent marks.
Additional Details: Tips to Maintain Natural Beauty
Avoid using products that contain alcohol or perfume, as they may damage the leather surface. Continuous contact with darker fabrics may also affect the original color of your piece.
