The care of familiar things

What we restore

A fine knit, a leather handbag or a piece of jewellery each asks for a different kind of care. We look at the material, construction and condition before recommending the work. If your repair is not listed, tell us about it.

Handbags

A bag you carry often deserves care that respects its shape and details. We assess worn stitching, edges, zips, linings and colour, then recommend cleaning or repairs suited to its material and condition.

Footwear

Favourite shoes can often stay with you longer with the right attention. Sole and heel work, cleaning, colour touch-ups and protective treatments are assessed according to the construction, material and finish of each pair.

Knitwear

A small hole or surface pilling need not mean the end of a favourite knit. We assess visible or discreet darning, pilling removal and shape adjustments, with attention to the yarn, tension and character of the piece.

Jewelry

Jewellery often carries a story as well as a design. Chain repairs, polishing, stone resetting, replating and small alterations are assessed with care for the metal, setting and original form.

Hand-Painted Textiles & Surfaces

Painted details give a piece its own character. We assess the restoration of motifs on clothing, leather and decorative objects, or discuss new painted work that belongs with the original design.

Beadwork & Embellishment

A missing bead or loosened embellishment can change the feel of a piece. We look at replacing, repairing or recreating those details, with attention to colour, balance and how securely they are held.

Clothing & Outerwear

A coat or jacket you know well may need a seam repaired, a zip replaced or a lining renewed. We assess the work with its drape and construction in mind, choosing threads and finishes that suit the garment.

The work, up close

BeforeAfter

Tweed mending

Tweed mending works with the weave and pattern of the original cloth. The aim is a discreet repair; the result depends on the damage and the material available.

BeforeAfter

Leather work

Worn soles and heels are assessed before new components are chosen. Repair gives a familiar pair another opportunity to be worn, while respecting its construction and character.

BeforeAfter

Handbag restoration

Cleaning, colour work and repairs to stitching or hardware can help restore a bag you love. Each step begins with its material and condition, keeping the original design in view.

Know what to expect

A guide to pricing

These starting prices help you plan. Each piece is assessed individually; the artisan sets the price for the work, and the Maison handles your request with you.

Final pricing varies with materials, complexity and labour. An estimate is not a final quote; your approval is required before work begins.
