Vachetta is untreated Italian leather generally used on luggage and luxury handbags. LV uses vachetta on the handles and trim of the canvas logo bags.
When first purchased Vachetta leather is a light beige color, but it is designed to age (a process called Patina), so it will go a dark brown shade over the years and with use. Patina is an unavoidable process as Vachetta is susceptible to water, stains and exposure to sunlight.
Handles made from Vachetta leather can go very dark due to the grease and natural oils from your hands penetrating the leather.
The upside to Patina, is that each item which has Vachetta leather will develop its own unique characteristics.
