Q&A

Atelier Fauves has chosen to use responsible and exceptional leather for all its products.

i) The hides come from Swiss and Catalan farms before being transformed into leather by the French Remy Carriat tannery or by an Italian Tannery.

ii) All our leather comes from the food industry, which is recovered, recycled and then transformed by our tannery.

iii) All our leather complies with REACH regulations, guaranteeing respect for the environment and your health against the risks associated with chemical substances.

All the products are made in France

Our products have been designed to last as long as possible. We have carried out extensive tests to ensure that our products are as hard-wearing as they are elegant. However, this lifespan depends above all on how you use the product and how well you look after it.

i) To reduce the wear and tear of your pieces over time, we encourage you to take good care of them, in particular by limiting the amount of rubbing or dropping that can damage the leather.

ii) We stress the importance of looking after leather, which can become dirty or discoloured. Regularly clean your accessories with cotton wool and cleaning products such as cleansing milk or glycerine soap.

iii) Finally, protect your item from humidity and extreme temperatures and avoid aggressive chemical products or prolonged periods of direct exposure to the sun. If your item gets wet, dry it immediately with a soft cloth.

Depending on how much you use it, your product may darken or discolour over time. With daily use, your product may come into contact with a variety of surfaces that can cause soiling or discolouration, such as rough or dark-coloured textiles. Leather is a living material that cannot withstand all types of treatment. To ensure that it lasts over time and stays in good condition, we recommend that you clean it regularly with products that are suitable for leather, such as cleansing milk or glycerine soap. If the leather turns black, you need to act quickly to prevent dirt from becoming encrusted.
