Caring for Chanel CAVIAR Leather

[idlehen]

I don't do anything for my caviar bags (or any of my other similar pebbled/grained leather bags). I tried to wipe down my boy caviar woc with a soft cloth and teeeny bit of water once and some of the dye came off on the edges So now I think the most I will do is wipe with a dry soft cloth.

Definitely be mindful wearing denim and dark/bright colored clothes around bags - I've had some color transfer nightmares even with caviar!

Only wear light color around white bags!

great advice here ladies! i generally do not clean or touch my caviar bags (some time back i was advised by an SA best not to treat caviar with any lotions, just a simple buff and clean occasionally will do). So usually after a long day i'd just do a gentle wipe with the white cloth that comes in the packaging This is especially so for iridescent caviar cause i wouldnt wanna affect the shine in any way.

This must have been mentioned a thousand times already buy Cadillac lotion has been a game changer for me. Definitely makes bag feel new and refreshed.

Hello, quick question. I have looked at a few variations of caviar classic bags and I have the shiner/softer caviar leather and I noticed the shiner ones tend to show the creases / wrinkles very quickly. I was wondering if you ladies know how to prevent that from getting worse? Here is a picture of my brand new one, see the portion under the flap. I know it's natural for the leather to do this but any tips on helping it look it's best?

I use Meltonian Boot & Shoe Cream in Delicate or Cadillac Select or Cadillac Boot & Shoe lotions for my caviar leather.

Ugh iridescent caviar is the scariest one. I need to clean some color transfer and idk where to start

This might be a stupid question but I have a toddler and baby so was wondering if it’s ok using baby wipes to wipe any spills on the bag?

Do you also have colour transfer with light denim?

has anyone cleaned their light colored caviar slgs? my 20s purple doesn't look as vibrant anymore and it looks like it could use a good cleaning

So I used cadillac select lotion in cleaning my classic flap in caviar. I noticed it had whitish spots? The leather looks dry when I got it so i thought it will help. How many times should I apply the lotion? I like that its not sticky after cleaning. I leave it to dry in open air.

caviar is basically maintenance free. . . just be careful carrying it w/ dark clothing, there *could* be color transfer. . .

Should it be visible if its a black caviar?

I don't know how a black bag could show color transfer. My post you quoted was in response to a member asking about white caviar.
