The piping on one of the corners of this Gucci Soho disco bag was torn, with the outer layer of leather worn through. We repaired and reinforced the piping by covering the damaged area with a thin leather patch.
The wax edging on the leather straps of this DKNY Bryant tote bag had come apart, leaving the leather dangerously exposed to irreversible damage with continued use. We carefully re-waxed the edging on the straps.
This Maison Margiela 5AC was in great shape but the hardware connecting the handles to the handle mount, and thereby the body of the bag, had broken. We repaired the hardware and re-secured the handle to the bag.
The hardware connecting the strap to the body of this iconic Christian Dior Saddle bag had broken off, with the screws holding its pieces together having fallen and gone missing. We repaired the hardware, replacing the missing screws.
This Valentino Daphne studded leather handbag became essentially unusable when the strap connector (aka strap mount) tore, leaving the strap with nothing to hook into. We crafted a replacement strap connector from a fresh piece of leather and stitched that into place, along the original stitching lines.
The epi leather on this Louis Vuitton Twist bag was torn at the seam around the bottom of the bag. We repaired the torn leather, installing an interior leather patch which we used to seal up the tear and reinforce the area.
One of the back straps on this Oroton Estate backpack was tearing away from the leather trim into which was stitched. We repaired the strap and re-stitched it into place.
This Louis Vuitton Alma BB handbag was relatively new but suffered a serious burn from a candle, damaging the vachetta leather around the bottom of the bag. We replaced this vachetta leather with entirely new leather.
The polished pebble leather lining the interior pocket on this Coach Charlie Carryall handbag was peeling and had become very soft, making the zipper on the pocket difficult to use. We replace the inner lining along with all the interior pockets.
The canvas strap on this Valentino Garavani belt bag had torn away. We repaired the strap, carefully re-securing it to the body of the bag.
