SUPPLY CHAIN

Since the start, Liffner handbags have been handcrafted at a family-owned factory outside Florence, an area known for its traditional leather working techniques. Unmatched attention to detail and time-honored skills of the local artisans are closely aligned with our desire to create unique, expressive pieces of impeccable quality. We consciously produce our collections in small batches to stay in line with demand, never straining our resources.

MATERIALS

We only use bi-product hides and partner with trusted tanneries top rated by the Leather Working Group. Since we want you to be able to carry your Liffner bag for all future we choose to work with natural leathers rather than vegan/synthetic leathers. A natural leather has an increased durability, allowing our designs to maintain their signature Liffner shape. For the same reason, we use chrome tanning instead of vegetable tanning in order for the leather to retain its color and increase the long-term wearability.

CARE FOR OUR PRODUCT

Our bags are designed to be loved and worn for years to come.  To facilitate this, all of our leathers have been treated to support their resistance to water and stains. However, to best maintain and preserve your bag’s condition, we recommend you read the care instruction below.

Limit the exposure of strong sunlight, humidity, heat, or rain and avoid contact with liquids, perfumes and oil.To maintain the structural shape of your bag, stuff it when not in use and store it in the Liffner dust bag. Stuffing your bag makes a big difference for the lifespan of your bag! Brush your suede bag regularly with a suede brush to restore the suede texture and gently remove surface dirt. Clean your leather bag regularly by using a soft, damp cloth and wipe the leather to remove dust and dirt.

PACKAGING AND TRANSPORT

All packaging used to protect your purchase during transit is 100% recyclable. We have consciously chosen not to offer gift boxes, unnecessary plastic or excessive tissue paper in order to minimize our production of waste.
