A new client brought in a gray, lambskin Bottega
Veneta intrecciato weave purse (circa 1980's) that had
been given to her by her mom.
Given the condition of the purse -- light faded, scuffed, grease
stained and ink stained (a green ink pen had "exploded" inside a
side pouch attached to the liner) -- she had stored it in the far
reaches of her closet and, by her own admission, had forgotten
about it.
On her first visit to our facility to drop off some couture
dresses, she noticed all the handbags and purses waiting to be
picked up by or shipped to their respective owners. Later that day
she returned with this purse.
The before and after photographs reflect the transformation.

By the way, that green ink stained terry towel is just one of
seven or eight we used to painstakingly leach out all the green
ink.
If you've got a high-end handbag or purse that you've been
hiding in the far reaches of your closet, bring it or mail it to us. We've been known to perform
miracles!
