I Restore High End Handbags & Heirloom Leather items

Bag restoration projects completed include contemporary brands such as Coach, Gucci, Longchamp, Mulberry, Christian Louboutin, Mont Blanc and Louis Vitton plus heirloom bags, various cases, and other special leather products. Restored, repaired, recoloured and back in use - all contributing to the movement of sustainable fashion: repair, recycle and reuse

Hours

You're welcome to come and meet in person in my Bristol workshop but as it's an active workshop we'll first need to arrange an appointment. Leave me a message and we can find a date and time that suits

Feedback

Handbags are such personal possessions and I'm always grateful to be trusted with the restoration of often treasured items and to get such lovely customer feedback
