Repairing a Louis Vuitton bag isn't that easy; you definitely need a passion for the craft—and, of course, for the product!

That's why I specialized in Louis Vuitton bags and luggage

and thus became an exclusive workshop of the Louis Vuitton Group—one of the very best!

A good repair is one you can't see.

That's why the zipper seams are stitched back into the exact same holes, and the lining is, of course, glued and sewn back into each individual stitch hole.

Should the leather edges be glued, sanded, and dyed black, brown, or red? Should the leather parts be treated with leather conditioner, or should the brass parts be polished—and, of course, all of this should be done so that it’s imperceptible.

Since I haven't worked for Louis Vuitton since 2009, I'm back after back after a 12-year break! My love for the product is back!

Now, I would like to present you with an exclusive excerpt from my work for your reference and review.

Every repair is handled on a case-by-case basis—and, of course, as quickly as possible! If I’m unable to help you, I’ll be happy to refer you to the Louis Vuitton repair service.

For more information, please see the price list.

Thank you, yours, oLiVer
