This vintage Gucci bag had become effectively unusable, with one of the strap mounts missing, the piping torn, and the inner lining disintegrating. We replaced the strap mount, repaired the piping and replaced the inner lining.
The straps on this Louis Vuitton Monogram Canvas Petit Bucket bag were worn and discoloured, especially at the top of the handles where carried. We installed a new pair of straps made from a fresh vachetta leather and based on the design of the original straps.
This Bottega Veneta Arco handbag was in great shape, except for a couple of loose stitches along the top flap. We repaired the stitching, replacing the loose stitching with new thread through the original holes.
The leather binding around the sides of this Louis Vuitton Popincourt bag were heavily worn and dry — as is common when worn vachetta leather is not conditioned to keep it nourished and healthy. We replaced the leather binding on both sides of the bag with new, tanned vachetta leather.
The leather piping on this Gucci Disco bag had torn through on multiple corners around the bag. We replaced the piping with entirely new leather.
This Chanel Wild Stitch Flap bag was looking a little tired after years of continuous wear, leaving an otherwise exquisite bag looking like a mere shadow of its former self. We cleaned and conditioned the leather throughout the bag before recolouring / refinishing the leather to an entirely new colour of the customer’s choosing.
This Gucci Monogram GG Supreme Tote was well looked after, but starting to show clear signs of wear and tear, especially around the corners, top binding and handles. We protected the corners, reattached the torn handle, and replaced the top binding.
The strap connector hardware on this Dior Saddle bag had broken, leaving the strap loose. We replaced the hardware with entirely new Dior parts.
This Louis Vuitton Alma handbag was looking worse for wear, with the leather handles and clochette strap torn. We replaced the handles and repaired the clochette strap.
This Givenchy Antigona bag had lost its striking metallic gold colour in several areas, leaving the bag looking old and tired. We cleaned, conditioned and custom recoloured the leather.
