The leather woven through the chain strap on this Prada handbag had torn at its weakest point, where it loops through the bag. We were able to remove, cleanly stitch and re-weave the leather through the strap to repair it.
This leather on this Chanel handbag was heavily stained and discoloured, to the point where the bag would need to be recoloured. We performed a full colour change, to a dark grey that concealed the stains and got the bag looking effectively new.
This Coach tote was showing signs of wear at points of significant weakness in the bag, where the strap is attached to the bag. We re-secured the loops to the bag, glueing and stitching them carefully and in a way that would strengthen those points of weakness.
The leather on this Valentino Garavani Rockstud tote bag had become dirty, dry and scuffed, leaving the leather darker and in desperate need of restoration. We cleaned and conditioned the leather before performing a full colour restoration.
This Gucci Diana tote bag was in excellent condition but for a broken bamboo handle, which we were able to re-secure to the bag by replacing damaged hardware.
The vachetta leather handles and trim on this Louis Vuitton bag had been painted over with a substance that was not absorbed by the leather and was starting to fade and peel away. We fully stripped the leather of this substance, cleaned and conditioned the bag and then recoloured the leather.
The shoulder strap on this Bally handbag was a little too short for its owner. We extended the strap by carefully installing a piece of leather in the centre of the existing strap.
