PRODUCT

LEATHER

HOW DO I USE THE LEATHER CARE PRODUCTS?

Always test any protector, cleaner or conditioner product on a discreet area before applying it to the entire product. Every few months, apply a small amount to your microfiber cloth, working in circular motions. Allow the leather to air dry.  

To clean, use a dry or slightly dampened (warm water is best) delicate microfiber cloth, to gently wipe away any marks. While cleaning, make sure that the item does not get to damp as that can effect the leather and stain the product with water marks.

We suggest to dampen the cloth first rather than the product. Always dry it off completely.

*Please note that leathers such as Saffiano are more delicate, so handle with care.

WHAT IS THE LEATHER CONDITIONER MADE FROM?

The Oroton Leather Conditioner is a specially formulated cream made with the addition of tea tree oil to help you clean and condition all types of smooth leather and synthetic material.

With regular use, it helps to resist soiling, and add gloss and natural lustre. It is suitable for most darker coloured leather, but is not to be used on suede.

HOW TO CARE FOR VEGAN LEATHER?

With the right amount of love and care your Vegan leather bag will be enjoyed for seasons to come.

We recommend the following steps to care for your Vegan product:

  • Use a soft, slightly damp microfibre cloth to wipe away and dust.

*Please note that the Oroton Leather conditioner is not vegan but can also be used on the product in moderation.

DOES OROTON OFFER REPAIRS OR SPARE PARTS?

Unfortunately, Oroton does not offer a repair service or any spare parts. If you have a previous season or vintage Oroton product that requires repair, please feel free to contact your closest Oroton store for a recommendation for a local repair service.

Alternatively, you can check it Sole Heeled, click here to obtain a quote on your repair. Please note that Oroton is not responsible for items damaged by repair centers.

WHAT IS CONSIDERED AS WEAR AND TEAR?

The effects of wear and tear, such as accidents, treatment which is inconsistent with our care instructions, and dismantling or repairs by persons other than recommended repair specialists. Damage incurred during normal and intended use of the product that has rendered the garment/leather bag/jewellery unwearable or significantly hindered the expected performance of the product falls in line with wear and tear.


Just like any other material, leather is also prone to wear and tear. It may fade in colour or dry out and crack over time. This is due to lack of proper leather care and environmental influences such as dust, sunlight, oils and rain damage and other things.

Example: A common effect of wear and tear is colour migration from denim or dark materials onto light coloured leather. This effect of wear and tear is usually irreversible, thus we recommend when purchasing Oroton products that you seek care advice from our Oroton staff members.

Oroton are able to cover the failure of hardware, components or workmanship which is classified as manufacturing faults. Generally a manufacturing fault could potentially occur within the first use or less than a year.

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO STORE MY LEATHER PRODUCT?

At Oroton we strive to offer quality handcrafted products constructed from only the finest materials. Our materials are among the best available worldwide. To ensure that you can maintain the 'like new' appearance of your Oroton products, we recommend you follow a few simple practices:

  • Store your Oroton products in the care bags provided* when not in use. Note, not all products come with care bags.

  • Never store them in plastic bags or the leather will sweat.

  • Store in a place where air can circulate and away from direct sunlight.

  • Store in a cool, dry place without any pressure being applied which could cause permanent indentations and deformations, which are not covered.

  • Avoid overfilling your product as this may cause stretching and deformation in the leather/material.

Please be mindful that the use of hand sanitiser and other alcohol based products can have a damaging effect on your beautiful new purchases. Please use with caution.

 

JEWELLERY

WHAT DEFINES STERLING SILVER?

Oroton's sterling silver jewellery is made from 100% recycled 925 sterling silver. To achieve a longer lasting finish and to protect against tarnishing, our silver jewellery is plated with rhodium. Rhodium is a member of the platinum group of metals and is extremely rare, it is also one of the hardest, most durable metals.

WHAT IS GOLD VERMEIL?

Your Sterling Silver & Gold Vermeil pieces are designed to be worn every day. Not to be confused with regular gold plating, gold vermeil is a thick, long-lasting, durable layer of 18k solid gold over high-quality precious sterling silver. We use 18k gold that is a minimum 2.5 microns thick, to classify vermeil, layered over 925 sterling silver. Second to solid gold, Gold Vermeil and Sterling Silver is the most premium, long lasting type of jewellery.

TELL ME ABOUT THE HALLMARKING PROCESS FOR JEWELLERY?

The hallmarking process is an industry-regulated means of identifying the purity of a metal. You will note that jewellery made from precious metals will often be stamped with a set of numbers. Our Oroton gold vermeil and sterling silver pieces are finished with the 925 Hallmark - this applies to our necklaces and bracelets, finished with a custom tag noting the hallmark and Oroton branding, while our rings and earrings feature a finely debossed hallmark.

HOW TO CLEAN GOLD VERMEIL AND STERLING SILVER JEWELLERY?

Caring for your sterling silver and gold vermeil jewellery is important as your jewels will naturally develop a patina over time. Patina is created when the surface of the metal comes in to contact with oils, makeup, perfumes and chemicals on your skin.

We recommend putting your jewellery on last, removing it first. Take off your jewels before you bathe, swim or exercise and avoid direct contact with chemicals such as creams, perfumes, salt and chlorinated water.

It is possible to restore the shine of sterling silver and gold vermeil jewellery by cleaning your pieces with a soft, damp microfibre cloth. Take care not to over-polish as extensive buffing may remove the gold vermeil over time. For tricky areas, such as clasps and settings, you can use a small soft natural bristle brush and warm water. Apply gentle pressure and be sure to thoroughly dry your piece when finished.


Gemstones and pearls are also delicate. Exposure to chemicals and abrasives should be avoided as these can damage colour and lustre. We recommend cleaning your gemstones and pearls with a soft, damp, non-abrasive cloth.

IMPORTANT CARE INSTRUCTIONS

This design is created from a vegetable-tanned leather, a process that uses natural tannins to colour the hide. Expect this beautiful leather to develop a rich patina and darken over time depending on frequency of use and environmental conditions.

All pet accessories can be wiped clean with a cloth or sponge, ensure leather is dry before applying leather wax or conditioner. If hardware is in water for long periods of time or in various water conditions like Chloride or saltwater this will accelerate the wear and tear and may cause the hardware to corrode or tarnish sooner.

Oroton is not liable if the pet chews and breaks products, if product is left outdoors in direct sun when not being used or if the product and becomes damaged from weather conditions including rain or water.

Take care with webbing to ensure it does not get caught on rough surfaces that might pull the fibers. Where possible, do not allow the webbing and leather to become wet, but in the case the webbing and leather become wet, leave to dry in a cool place and away from direct contact with the sun.


Note: applying care products, wax or conditioners will also create a darker tone. Your leather is designed to soften with wear – a lived-in look we love.
