Explore the process of leather handbags from material selection to production, and understand the craftsmanship behind each step

1. Selection and classification of leather materials

The first step in making a genuine leather handbag is choosing the right leather. Different types of leather, such as full-grain leather, top-grain leather, and trim leather, each have different textures and uses. Full-grain leather is often used on high-end handbags for its natural texture and durability, while top-grain leather is often used on lighter styles.

Selection process:

Texture and thickness : The thickness and flexibility of the leather need to be considered during production to ensure that the finished product is both structural and soft.
Color and dyeing properties : Select appropriate colors and dyes according to design needs to achieve the ideal effect in post-processing.

2. Leather treatment and preliminary processing

After the material is selected, the leather undergoes a series of treatments to enhance its properties, such as dehairing, tanning and dyeing. During the tanning process, animal leather is transformed into a more durable material, a step that is crucial to the quality of the handbag.

Tanning method:

Vegetable tanning : Using natural plant extracts to give the leather a natural tone and good durability.
Chrome tanning : It is known for its speed and produces brightly colored and soft leather.

3. Design and pattern making

The design phase involves the functionality and aesthetics of the bag. Designers need to consider structure, size and details such as pockets, zippers and fastener placement. Pattern making is the process of converting a design into a physical model, which helps predict the appearance and proportions of the finished product.

4. Cutting and Combining

After the pattern is confirmed, the leather is cut. This step often requires high-precision tools and skilled techniques to avoid wasting expensive materials. The cut pieces of leather are assembled according to the design, which involves stitching together the lining, pockets and trim components.

5. Sewing technology and handmade details

Sewing is one of the most technically demanding steps in the production process. High-quality handbags are often sewn by hand or with precision machine sewing techniques to ensure strong and even seams. Hand-stitching not only adds to the beauty of the product, but also strengthens the structure, making the bag more durable.

Features of hand sewing:

FINE STITCHING : Hand stitching has more character and durability than rough machine stitching.
Detailed processing : such as corner finishing and texture matching, reflect the uniqueness of the handbag.

6. Final processing and quality inspection

Once sewn, the bag undergoes final trimming and processing, such as punching holes, adding hardware and embossing. Next, the handbags undergo quality inspection to ensure that every detail is up to standard, including the smoothness of the zippers, the firmness of the handles and the neatness of the stitching.

7. Exquisite finishing of genuine leather handbags: coloring and care

Some bags are finished with a color or protective coating for added stain resistance and durability. This step also helps bring out the shine and softness of the leather. Finally, the bag goes through a round of polishing and care to add a protective layer to extend its lifespan.
