    This makes me so sad, cause I have the exact same bag, and honestly the shade is wrong. It's not the oak color Mulberry usually uses, it's a lighter sand shade. Much like the pieces you didn't restore. You see, there should be less mustard, I guess less red. It's just such a delicate shade, perhaps you could find a photo of it online. Apart from that it came out so beautifully! Thank you for sharing

    You did a fabulous job with this bag considering the condition it was in! I have a question though .. why weren’t you able to just paint those tabs and the clochette the same color as the rest of the bag? If they originally came in a different color then why not back to it’s original color as well? That’s the one thing that would’ve really bothered me. Unless of course the owner asked to leave it the same. You mentioned it was made from a different type of leather but as leather professionals what would be the reason for just a cleaning and not a repainting? I would love to know the reason as I am incredibly curious about this decision. Thank you so much! 😊

    I've always wondered this...I know in France you can't carry fakes around. Even if it's a SUPERFAKE they can tell...but what if you had a restoration done where part of the bag was replaced by the service you hired? Will people still be able to tell? Like how they completely replaced the straps here.... does it make the bag into a hybrid of real and imitation? O-O
