So they bought a leather bag, paid for it to be restored, then paid to go to Switzerland to sell it, did they make a profit or a loss?....oh and I love all the restorers they always do a brilliant job, my favourite is the blacksmith, what a craftsman

A guy claiming to be a royal Romanov relative in France in the 20s. Gee, you didn't see many of them. Princes ALWAYS wrote their name in ink on their bags.

I wouldn't buy into that name tag. I think the guy who sold it to him pulled a fast one...

The age of most of these artisans is a matter of some concern to the future.

That bag would not be cost effective in 99.9% of the time.And there aren't enough craftspeople that would bother to tackle that job.

Can anyone tell me what is the first component of the rejuvenating balm he is using ? I understand glycerin and beeswax but not the first. That balm seems to do a very good job in dried leather.

That strap looked awful sewn onto the bag like that. It looked like someone had sewn a strap to the bag.. He should've framed it with brass or something..
