This leather Coach purse was brought to me to be cleaned.
The customer had spilled oil based lotion in the purse,
which had soaked through the skin leaving a dark area on the outside.
The issue with oily type stains is that they tend to permanently darken the leather.
These areas don't match the rest of the leather even after cleaning and will need to be re-dyed.
After cleaning, the leather had changed and the area did not match.
So we chose to re-dye the purse.
The customer had given me freedom to pick a shade of brown that I thought looked good.
So I hand blended a shade a little different from the original.
She liked it. It gave her the feeling of having a new purse.
I was happy to have another satisfied customer.
