Leather Surgeons is the home of Gerry Gallagher, who is regarded as one the best handbag sample makers and leather craftsmen in the world. Leather Surgeons is Gerry and his sons’ (who have trained under him for over a decade) personal restoration, consultation and sample making studio, not a repair shop. Unlike a repair shop that hires local employees with limited experience, we offer a mail in service so you can send your handbag directly to the very best in the industry and someone with decades of experience in creating handbags. You can trust in knowing exactly who is restoring your handbag, and the reputation they've earned. We are also specialists, no shoes, jackets, furniture – our background is exclusively in creating and restoring handbags and consulting the world’s most expensive designers, something you wont find anywhere else. Please note: Our operation is designed to offer the very highest level of quality and customer service possible. To do this, every restoration is done by Gerry with his two sons who have been studying under Gerry for over ten years. We only have a few assistance to aid in prep, communication and shipping/handling. There is never a handbag that passes through that is done by staff. Because of this and the level of service and quality we want to meet with every handbag, time restraints force us to have a limited client list. We are now accepting new clients for the first time in over 15 years, but once our client list is full we will have to implement a waiting list for larger restorations in which we will provide a date to send the item in. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We have: -Restored and authenticated over 200,000 Chanel handbags -Restored ancient leather artifacts for the Museum of Natural History -Made handbag samples for designer brands such as Tiffany's and Hayward Luxury -Created custom handbags for celebrities -Created custom leather training equipment for an Olympic team at the US Olympic Training Center -Current and past experience consulting today’s leading designer brands -Did troubleshooting and restoration work on the world’s most expensive handbags, one line worth $250,000 per bag, another worth $100,000 per bag, and we consistently restore handbags worth $30,000-$100,000 each week -Made and donated an alligator handbag to Donald Trump's Leukemia charity auction last year that raised $16,000 -Exotic skin specialists -30 years experience
