Bag: Obi fabric is traditionally not made to be washed.If you must clean, wipe the clutch gently with a fabric cleaner or blot gently using a towel dipped in soap and water.Consider treating your clutch with a fabric protector in order to protect it from water damage, stains & snags.
Obihimo: (Japanese rope):The tassel at the end of the rope may become frayed or disheveled.If this should happen use a liquid seam or fraying sealant,this will seal it and keep the tassel in place.You may also place only the tassel over steam, this will help loosen and straighten the strings.
