The leather around the outside of this Chanel Quilted Leather Jumbo Classic bag was looking tired, with discolouration and wear around the corners and bottom of the bag due to abrasion. We cleaned and conditioned the leather throughout the exterior of the bag before recolouring / refinishing the leather.
This handles on this Coach Peyton bag were heavily worn and tearing apart. We replaced the handles with an entirely new pair that we custom made based on the design of the original handles.

This Givenchy Nightingale handbag was starting to look a little old and tired, with accumulated dirt and discolouration visible throughout the exterior of the bag. We cleaned, conditioned and then recoloured / refinished the leather to restore it.
This Christian Dior bag’s exterior was significantly discoloured by not only ingrained dirt along the stitch lines but also gradual removal of the bag’s colour through abrasion of the leather’s outer layers. We cleaned and conditioned the leather before refinishing it to restore its original colour.
This Chanel messenger bag was in need of a refresh, with the gold hardware looking discoloured, the piping and chain strap worn and the inner lining stained. We replaced the piping and leather chain strap, performed some leather restoration work and re-plated the hardware.
