The garment that I want to share with you this week is a Balenciaga (http://http://www NULL.balenciaga NULL.com/us/en/balenciaga/Women/Handbags NULL.aspx?xtor=SEC-3) handbag that was just perfect except that the handles have gotten very dark from use.

At Jeeves of Belgravia we have a special process to remove the oil which collects in the handles of handbags. This process does not change the color or texture of the bag, but “extracts” the oils in the handles. This is a time consuming process that requires a delicate touch.

The most difficult part of this process is making sure that the dye of the handles remains exactly the same color as the rest of the bag. It is very easy to “go to far” with this process and end up with handles which do not match the rest of the bag.

Rest assured the handbag cleaning craftsman at Jeeves of Belgravia (http://www NULL.Jeevesny NULL.com) have taken care of 100’s of handbags and the utmost care is taken with each and every one.

Right now the Jeeves craftsmen are cleaning a collection of 25 handbags (Gucci, Prada, Balenciaga, etc.) for one client. When we are finished with this project I will share the images with you.

When you need handbag cleaning in New York City, think of Jeeves of Belgravia first.

Thanks for listening, Jerry Pozniak.
