Particularly noteworthy are the Noblessa and Fjord leathers, which are produced by the most renowned tanneries in Europe, Perlinger and Weinheimer. These high-quality leathers are characterized by their unique texture and durability and are a symbol of exquisite craftsmanship.

Challenges for leather in different weather conditions
Leather is a robust but sensitive material that requires special care, especially under extreme weather conditions. Rain and moisture can stress leather, weaken its structure and lead to deformation. Sunlight and heat, on the other hand, can dry out the leather, cause its color to fade and make it brittle. In winter, on the other hand, the cold affects the leather by making it stiffer and more susceptible to cracking. To overcome these challenges, it is crucial to regularly care for and protect the leather to preserve its natural beauty and durability.
The basics of leather care
Regular and careful care is essential to maintain the quality and beauty of leather products in the long term. Start with gentle cleaning to remove dust and dirt, avoiding the use of harsh chemicals. The use of high quality care products specifically designed for leather is equally important. These products help to keep the leather supple, preserve its color and protect it from the elements. Make sure you choose care products that are suitable for the type of leather you are using in order to achieve optimum results.
Special care tips for different types of leather
Noblessa and Fjord leathers used by BONAVENTURA are unique due to their manufacturing processes and properties. Noblessa leather, known for its two-tone look and silky feel, requires gentle care. Use leather care products specially designed for embossed leather to preserve its structure and color. Fjord leather, on the other hand, with its characteristic grain and robustness, requires care products that emphasize its natural beauty while enhancing its protection. Regular use of conditioner and gentle cleaner is recommended to keep both types of leather in top condition.
Preventive measures to protect leather
In the winter months, it is particularly important to protect leather from moisture and cold. One effective method is to use protective sprays and impregnations that have been specially developed for high-quality leather. One product that is particularly recommended is the Nano leather protection spray from BONAVENTURA . It forms a protective barrier that protects the leather from moisture and dirt. In addition, many BONAVENTURA products offer a patented nano-coating that provides additional protection against harsh weather conditions and ensures the longevity of your leather accessories.
