I love Vintage Gucci Bags - I've been a collector for over 10 years I've learned how to restore these vintage treasures and give them a second life - This is a Vintage Hard Train Case from the 70's Its a rare find - I purchased at an Estate Sale - it was in need of TLC - This was my first Webbing repair - If there is a will there is a way -It came out beautiful. Odd for some reason when I upload the pictures to post they are turned????
I've posted pictures of some of my best work..
Thanks so much for your message. The odd shaped small Gucci I have is actually a train case but I have been looking for a hard train case like yours. I bought one but it was the smaller case that had the two strips of the webbing with very large stitching and it just didn't do it for me and I sold it. How much are you asking for this case? Do you have any other pics? Thanks again.
Also, I noticed your repair vintage Gucci. I have a HUGE duffle with webbing and the webbing is fine and leather is fine but has lost it's shape as the canvas has also. Do you have a way to fix the shape of these bags? And if so can you give me an estimate? The dimensions of the duffle are 32" x 17". Thanks!!
Hi Anasanfran - The Train case that I repaired the webbing has already sold but I have the same one that you saw at Etsy but in Navy like your set - I will post a picture now . Its Avail T Francisco 8 8 at G mail . Ciao Tina
I also stuff my bags when they are not in use - you can take a plastic trash bag from the market or CVS stuff with crumpled newspaper then tie it off and place in the bag - for the larger duffles I use old towels to stuff them. Tina
Hi Anasanfran - The Navy Train Case that matches your set in Navy photo is posted
This looks great! I have the exact same problem on my green and red webbing!
I would greatly appreciate it if you could give me tips on how You cleaned yours and restored the color pls!
