The Carmen has been handcrafted with genuine leather of the highest quality.

To preserve its beauty over time, we recommend avoiding prolonged contact with sunlight, rain and substances that may damage the leather, such as water, alcohol or oil.

Clean with a soft, dry cloth. When not in use, store it in its dust bag, away from light and humidity, to preserve its shape and texture.

If you need any advice on how to care for your bag, we'd love to help. You can reach us at info@valentinariveramadrid.com

The Carmen is produced in small runs using responsible, artisan processes.

We use high-quality cowhide exclusively from certified Spanish tanneries that meet the European Union's highest sustainability standards.

Our leather is vegetable-tanned, chrome-free and free from heavy metals — respectful of the environment and safe even for the most sensitive skin.

Our packaging is made in Spain using partially recycled paper, as part of our commitment to a more conscious and responsible production chain.

Every one of our leather bags is carefully handcrafted by skilled artisans in Spain.

We work with family workshops that have spent decades perfecting their craft — the same workshops that supply the great luxury leather goods houses, helping to preserve this important tradition in our country.

Every Carmen passes through the same hands from start to finish. Not mass production: real, verifiable craftsmanship, with a name and a place of origin.
