Celine Leather Guide

Need help deciding which one of Celine’s fabulous leathers are right for you? We have tons of helpful information on all our favorite leathers, from dazzling smooth to exotic python and much more.Celine-smooth-leather-2Celine-smooth-leatherCeline Smooth Leather Women love the Celine Smooth Leather for the simple fact that it appears smooth and creamy, a texture that is not only glorious to the eye but soft to touch. However, it’s not all rainbows and daises when it comes to the Celine Smooth Leather. While this particular leathers tends to hold its shape very well, it is still at risk of ‘puddling’ in some areas. Many women have also remarked that this Smooth Leather can be scratched very easily, so it must be handled with care. If you have a bag with Smooth Leather, try to keep it out of harms way and take precautions using it as a day to day bag.Celine-drummed-leatherCeline-drummed-leather-2Celine Drummed Leather Celine Drummed Leather is certainly the ‘cream of the crop’ when it comes to exquisite leathers. It’s been known to hold its shape magnificently well, even after months of somewhat heavy use. And not only does it hold shape through thick and thin, but is also a very durable leather and isn’t prone to scratches. Aside from being practically scratch resistant, durable, and strong, Celine Drummed Leather is also loved for its unique design full of depth and life, unlike the Celine Smooth Leather which is perfectly straight and narrow. All in all it’s a wonderful choice for bags you’ll use on an everyday basis.Celine-pebbled-leather-2Celine-pebbled-leatherCeline Pebbled Leather As far as textured leathers go, Celine Pebbled Leather is definitely a crowd favorite. It has a unique bumpy characteristic that gives the bag a bit of fun texture and cool appearance that many are drawn to. It has also been described as a very low maintenance bag that won’t be prone to scratches or scuffs easily, which is great for a bag you’ll use on a regular basis. However, the biggest downside to having Pebbled Leather is that it is soft and will definitely slouch over time.Difference Celine Pebbled and Drummed Leather Some may say Celine Pebbled leather and Drummed leather are interchangeable, but that isn’t exactly true. Although they look delightfully similar (especially on certain bags and accessories), drummed is actually a hybrid between smooth and pebbled, with a thicker texture that’s less prone to scratches, scuffs, and slouching. And while the tiny-textured pebbled leather is also great at resisting signs of wear, it unfortunately slouches after heavy usage. The easiest way to tell them apart is to look at them: pebbled has extremely tiny ‘pebbles’ all over while drummed flaunts a more matted look.Celine-suedeCeline-suede-2Celine Suede Suede is obviously a stunning type of leather with a unique feel to it, however it is one of the most high maintenance leathers on the market. Celine Suede MUST be handled with utmost care and cannot come into contact with rain or other sources of water by any means. If you decide on suede for its lovely looks and fascinating texture, make sure to spray it with a suede protectant before use. You should also consider stuffing it every night to keep its shape. Choosing a darker color is also a wonderful option, as suede is an easy culprit for marks, stains, and scuffs. If marks or stains do occur, the best solution is an unscented baby wipe and a stiff brush to keep clean.Celine-nubuckceline-nubuck-2Celine Nubuck Celine Nubuck is certainly an interesting type of leather that isn’t talked about often, mostly for the simple fact that it is commonly combined with other leathers in a bag and isn’t the spotlight leather. It is a type of cowhide leather that has gone through many rubbing procedures to tone down the leather and give it a soft, suede-like texture. Celine Nubuck is similar to suede as it is still susceptible to stains and scuffs, however it is different in the way that it is far more durable and can withstand months of use. In conclusion, Nubuck is an expensive soft leather that should be treated as suede in all circumstances.Celine-stamped-croc-leatherCeline-stamped-croc-leather-2Celine (Stamped) Croc Leather To put it plainly, Celine (Stamped) Croc Leather is an exquisite leather with plenty of sophistication and class. Unlike other leathers, the (Stamped) Croc Leather can easily hide imperfections thanks to its collection of lines and designs, and isn’t very susceptible to scratches or stains in the first place. It’s a fabulous leather with its own unique appearance that makes it a huge hit for females wanting something different than the rest. All in all a great choice for everyday bags- practically scratch resistant and very easy to clean.Celine-python-leatherCeline-python-leather-2Celine Python Leather Many people consider Celine Python Leather for the “WOW” factor. It clearly has a remarkable and exotic appearance that is nothing short of jaw-dropping. But one must take great precautions when deciding on Celine Python Leather. This very durable leather may be firm, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t prone to scratches and scuffs. The best piece of advice is to apply a leather protectant before using the bag, as this will soften the leather while also protecting it from potential damage. If the bag comes into contact with water, dry it off immediately to reduce risk of water damage. If you love exotic looks and aren’t afraid to put in the time to care for this leather, definitely consider this for your next bag.Celine-Anaconda-LeatherCeline Anaconda Leather Anaconda leather is a very exotic skin that comes from one of the largest snakes in the world- the Anaconda. This dazzling leather features small and even scales throughout for a very refined and polished finish. However, while this skin is exotic and high-fashion, it’s prone to showing wear after several months of use.Celine-Box-Calfskin-LeatherCeline Box Calfskin Leather Box calfskin is a particular type of calfskin that features box-like markings on the grain. It is one of the most sought after leathers because of its uniquely textured appearance and durability. It is less prone to slouches and scuffs than some other leathers and the delicate design sets it apart from traditional calfskin leather.Celine-Bullhide-Calfskin-LeatherCeline Bullhide Calfskin Leather Bullhide calfskin is great for everyday bags and accessories that will see heavy use. The heavier and larger hides create a distinct and delightful leather pattern on the exterior, and there are plenty color options when it comes to this leather.

    I am getting a Celine smooth calfskin phantom and am worried about taking it in the rain/the best way to ensure this bag keeps its shape. Any suggestions about cleaners or precautions I should take or any tips to ensure this bag is kept pristine?

    • Hi Nicole, in general, leathers should never touches rain because it’s just not good, no matter what leather. Best to ensure is to have a plastic cover in case of rainy days, or to avoid is by using a large embrella.

      For designer bags, I always advice not to take any products, but instead just wipe it once in a while with a microfiber cloth. Maintain it nicely by putting it back into the dust bag and avoid sun.
