I bought a red vintage lambskin chanel bag some time ago. The color was pale at some areas and I tried to dye it myself with red saphir cream polish, the colour got very irregular, i tryed to remove it with alkohol, redyed it with the same product, the colour got darker and better, still irregular, but my biggest concern now is that the skin got unfortunately very dry, stiff, it lost all its softness!! Besides the quilting deflated, and the puffiness it had before is gone!! It does not feel like a chanel lambskin bag anymore! I am afraid that the leather will get soon cracked as dry as it is now! I tried to put some leather conditioner, but it won't help.
Can the bag get revived again? Can I get back some of its softness and its puffiness?
Any ideas if and how the bag can be saved??
Thank you in advance for your advice/help!!
