Designer Handbags & Leather
Paul Smith Suede Jacket
A Paul Smith blue suede jacket professionally cleaned and restored with color refreshing.
Goyard Saint Louis Tote Interior Cleaning
A Goyard Saint Louis tote with two problems at once: a spilled makeup compact soaked into the cream canvas lining, and a chalky grey film dulling the chevron canvas outside. Both were cleaned, each on its own terms, along with the matching pochette.
Erdem Mini Bloom Tote Ink Removal
An Erdem Mini Bloom tote in porcelain white calf leather came in with blue ink marks on the front panel. The leather was cleaned by hand and the affected areas were color matched and blended back into the surrounding finish, keeping the delicate floral print intact.
