LA DOLOROSA COLLECTION

This collection -which our community has already called the best to date-represents our most human side: the silent work, sacrifice and surrender.
That place where there is still no miracle, but there is hope.
Where the invisible is felt, but not yet seen.

It symbolizes feminine resilience, the hands that create, repair and endure, but never cease to put beauty in the midst of chaos.

"La Dolorosa is not sadness. It is hope.
It is the process before the miracle.
It is the pain that blooms in those hands that, despite everything, do not stop."

100% HANDCRAFTED & PREMIUM ORGANIC AND BIODEGRADABLE LEATHER.

Made in our workshop with 100% handcrafted techniques.
Made of certified vegetable tanned bovine leather (LWG) -free of toxins, chromium and heavy metals-, from natural tannins such as rhubarb, quebracho or mimosa.
Each piece reflects a strict policy of environmental responsibility and total traceability.

IS A UNIQUE PIECE

Each bag is unique.
Vegetable tanned leather has its own history, with nuances, roughness and variations that make it unrepeatable.
Dyed with vegetable tannins, each piece may vary slightly in tone: this imperfection is its greatest beauty.

Over time, the leather ages elegantly, gaining character and shine.
A bag with soul. A living piece.

And what makes us most proud of this product:

¡100% handmade, directo desde nuestro taller!

Queremos que tus bienhechas de piel te duren toda la vida y, para ello, necesitarán un poquito de amor por tu parte.

Pero no dramas: si algo tiene de bueno nuestra piel, es que los cuidados son mínimos. 

Cuidados básicos para piel bovina blandita:

Limpieza suave

• Usa un paño seco o ligeramente húmedo (con agua, no empapado) para retirar el polvo.

• Evita productos abrasivos y limpia siempre con movimientos suaves.

Hidratación

• Cada 2-3 meses, aplica una crema específica para cuero (o un bálsamo natural sin siliconas) para nutrir la piel.

• Aplica con un paño suave y en movimientos circulares.

Protección

• Evita exposición prolongada a la luz directa del sol o fuentes de calor (puede alterar el color o resecar la piel).

• Si se moja, sécala a temperatura ambiente (nunca con secador ni calor directo).

Cuidados básicos para piel de vaqueta:

Limpieza

• La vaqueta, al ser más robusta y menos tratada, se limpia igual: paño seco o ligeramente húmedo.

Hidratación

• Necesita más hidratación que la nappa. Usa aceites o ceras específicas (cera de abeja, por ejemplo), aplicando siempre con moderación y de forma uniforme.

• Esto ayuda a mantener su flexibilidad y a realzar la pátina natural.

Oscurecimiento natural

• Ten en cuenta que la vaqueta, al ser más natural, oscurece con el uso y la exposición al sol. ¡Es parte de su encanto y carácter!

• No intentes "corregir" este tono; es el resultado de su envejecimiento noble y natural.

Consejo final para ambas pieles:
El cuero de calidad mejora con el tiempo, pero necesita mimo: evitar contacto con productos químicos agresivos (perfumes, alcohol, cremas cosméticas, etc.). Siempre guarda tus bolsos en bolsas de algodón o fundas transpirables, ¡nunca en plásticos!

Y siempre nos encontrarás al otro lado para cualquier cosa que necesites en el futuro con tu bienhecha.

→ What is the difference between María Dolores and Dolores?
María Dolores is larger and more powerful: it has more capacity, reinforced structure and space for laptop, A4 documents or short trips. Dolores is more compact and lighter, ideal for day-to-day use.

→ Can I use it as a bag or tote?
Yes, it is multi-position: you can adjust it as a backpack, shoulder bag or tote, thanks to its modular system with circular carabiners and adjustable handles.

→ Which version is right for me?
If you prefer a more structured look, choose the version with a stitched handle. If you like a clean, minimalist look, the version without a handle is perfect - and you can always add a removable handle.

→ What's its capacity?
It fits a 14" laptop, A4 notebook, bottle, wallet, glasses, toiletry bag and more. Ideal for work, college or on the go.

→ How do you take care of it?
Avoid prolonged sun and humidity. Moisturize with colorless natural cream when needed. The skin will gain character and shine over time.

Can I return or exchange it?
Yes, as long as it is unused and in its original condition. Check our return and exchange policy or write to us: we will be happy to help you.
