The leather panel around the bottom of this Burberry camera bag had lost some of its colour around the corners. We cleaned and conditioned the discoloured leather before recolouring / refinishing it.
The vachetta leather trim on this Louis Vuitton Neverfull handbag was cracking and tearing, causing an otherwise elegant bag seem beyond its best days.. We replaced the leather trim with an entirely new one.
This Gucci tote had become badly worn on the leather corners around the base of the bag, with some light surface tearing and discolouration. We cleaned and conditioned the canvas and leather before recolouring and restoring the leather.
This Hermès Birkin bag was losing the wax edging along the top rim of the bag, which had begun to disintegrate. We carefully removed the old edging and re-edged/re-waxed these parts of the bag.
This leather lining on this Celine Medium Triomphe shoulder bag has become discoloured with dye transfer stains. We cleaned and conditioned the lining before custom mixing a colour based on the existing and using that to recolour / refinish the leather.
The closure on this Chanel handbag had broken, with one of the pieces that locks into the other having snapped off. We replaced the broken hardware with a magnetic press stud.
This Prada tote had the edging around it top rim worn away, with the lining splitting from the body of the bag. We re-edged/re-waxed the affected area to seal up the lining and conceal the seam.
The plastic tubing on this Coach tote handbag had broken, leaving the handles essentially unusable and at risk of tearing. We replaced the existing handles with entirely new ones.
This Michael Kors Voyager tote bag had a loose strap that had come apart, making the bag unusable. We repaired the damaged strap and reinforced all four of the straps to help prevent this from happening again.
This Louis Vuitton Pochette Métis handbag’s latch had come apart entirely. We repaired the original latch, replacing the pins previously used to hold all the pieces with a pair of rivets that fixed everything into place.
