Care & Post-Purchase

To ensure your jewellery retains its lustre and withstands regular wear, we recommend keeping it dry at all times and wiping with your Brie Leon polishing cloth after use.

Chemicals and salt water may erode the plating on our jewellery, which can cause fading over time.

Store all jewellery in a ventilated, dry place to prevent tarnishing or discolouration.

View our full Care Guide here.

We use a range of leather-look textiles, each requiring extra TLC to ensure your bag withstands regular wear.

Regularly clean or dust your bag with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Stay away from any chemicals or abrasive surfaces to avoid scratches and marks.

Store away out of direct or filtered sunlight to prevent fading. Keep in a cool, dry place with sufficient ventilation.

Avoid genuine leather care products such as oils, waxes and polishes as this will damage the bag.

View our full Care Guide here.

Dye transfer isn't uncommon in the case of all handbags - both genuine leather and the low-impact alternatives that we use. We do not accept returns for dye transfer, and recommend following our tips below.

Various factors can increase the risk of dye transfer, including sweat, body oils, water and humidity, as well as how often the item is used and how it's stored.

Similarly, dye from apparel and denim can transfer onto our lighter-coloured items. We do not accept returns for staining caused after you receive your bag.

If your bag has been sitting in a cupboard or hanging somewhere unused and untouched, it likely just needs a little extra TLC. Before using the bag again, we recommend using a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe the full exterior of the bag. Let it completely air dry away from sunlight, and then store it away from any humidity, moisture, oils or abrasive surfaces.

Repeat this process whenever the bag has been unused for a while, not just to prevent any unwanted transfer but to ensure its longevity as part of your wardrobe.

All of our handbags are designed to age gracefully and withstand constant use.

With daily or heavy wear, you'll notice creases in the surface. This is to be expected as standard wear and tear and is not considered a 'fault'.

If your bag goes unused for a period of time, we recommend wiping it before use to remove any residual dye or dust on the surface.

We are happy to replace missing earrings, provided we still have stock available. Please contact us via info@brieleon.com and we will assist.
