Chanel Lambskin Bag Second Hand Painted over Original color.

[Question]

Dear Roger,

I found your page online through a bag restoration forum.

I read a lot of post from you, and it is very clear that you are the man to talk to as you have extensive knowledge on restoration.

I went to your website, and I saw what you recommended.

Would love to send you some photos and see what you recommend I should buy to restore.

I have attached the photos below. I bought this bag recently.

Its authentic channel second hand.

The condition is not very good.

The leather is very cracked, dry, and whoever was the previous owner has painted over the original color with white paint.

It’s lamb skin leather.

Let me know what products you could recommend for me.

I’m trying to strip the paint and bring back the original color, or if that’s not achievable make the leather look more refreshed and less cracked.

There are a few spots in which you can see the original color on the lamb skin.

Thank you for your time and help,

Best
Bettina
