Please read on for an explanation about this item!

This is an authentic preowned piece.  It has been professionally restored to remedy cosmetic wear and tear. It has been cleaned, painted and/or dyed and sealed.  No color will transfer.  It is in good preowned condition!  There may be some small scratches to the hardware or other signs of wear and tear consistent with normal use.

I am an artist who specializes in restoring authentic luxury designer leather goods.  I have had years of experience and I use professional grade leather paint, dye and sealer and make luxury designer preowned items look and feel like new again!  I believe my work speaks for itself!  

I only work with authentic items! I get my pieces from reputable sources and in addition to the item being authenticated by the source I also personally verify each item's particular hallmarks to ensure authenticity.  *Please note, eBay can not authenticate an item -such as this- that has been modified.  To clarify, regardless whether an item is authentic, if it has been altered in any way (such as what I do to restore these pieces) eBay can not authenticate it.  However, I personally guarantee my items as authentic.  Please let me know if you have any questions about this and I will be happy to elaborate!  

I love it when I can take a preowned luxury piece that still has a lot of life (but needs some TLC due to minor cosmetic wear and tear) and restore it to its previous glory!   I do not work with items that are badly damaged or pieces that require major repair such as rebonding or sewing.  

Feel free to search the internet for “LeatherWorksOfArt” to see more of my process including before/after pictures and timelapse videos of my work!

Thank you for supporting an artist and contributing to a circular economy!
