Care Guide

Preserving the beauty of natural buffalo horn.

Buffalo horn is a living natural material valued for its warmth, comfort, and unique character. With proper care, your frame will maintain its beauty for years and continue to develop a rich patina that reflects its journey with you.


Daily Care

After wearing your frame, gently wipe it with a clean microfiber cloth to remove dust, fingerprints, and natural skin oils.

Avoid using paper tissues, rough fabrics, or abrasive materials that may affect the finish over time.


Protect From Heat

Buffalo horn is a natural protein-based material and should be protected from excessive heat.

Avoid:

  • Leaving your frame inside a parked vehicle
  • Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight
  • Placement near radiators, heaters, or other heat sources

Excessive heat may alter the shape and finish of the material.


Protect From Water

While occasional contact with moisture is not harmful, prolonged exposure should be avoided.

Do not:

  • Wear your frame while swimming
  • Leave it in wet environments for extended periods
  • Store it while damp

If the frame becomes wet, dry it gently using a soft cloth before storage.


Storage

When not in use, store your eyewear in the protective case provided.

Proper storage helps protect the frame from:

  • Excessive humidity
  • Dust accumulation
  • Accidental pressure or impact

Cleaning

For routine cleaning:

  1. Use a soft microfiber cloth.
  2. If necessary, lightly dampen the cloth with clean water.
  3. Gently wipe the frame surface.
  4. Dry immediately with a clean cloth.

Avoid harsh cleaning agents, alcohol-based products, acetone, or household chemicals.


Natural Characteristics

Every buffalo horn frame displays unique variations in grain, color, and translucency.

These natural differences are not imperfections. They are a hallmark of genuine buffalo horn and contribute to the individuality of each piece.

No two frames are ever identical.

Like other fine natural materials, buffalo horn benefits from occasional care.
