IN THE WORKSHOP
This absolutely stunning bag was purchased at a local auction house by one of our clients. It was a gift for his girlfriend. The ‘Grand Classic Alligator’ handbag was made in 1991 by the American jeweller and designer named Barry Kieselstein-Cord. The bag came into Baxter & Black to have the handle reattached. The team were in awe of the magnificent attention to detail and craftsmanship. #barrykieselsteincord
Our very stylish client dropped in to pick up his wife’s new, freshly cover soled Louboutin Multitaski Alta 120 heels. 💚❤️💙 Casali cover soles give long lasting red soles and grip.

Meet Lucie, fresh off the plane from France!
Lucie has been lighting up our workshop over the past couple of weeks with her bubbly personality and beautiful accent. She studied shoemaking at Compagnons du Devoir before gaining industry experience in France. We are incredibly grateful Lucie chose to join our team, even just for a while, and her work is absolutely exquisite. Good luck getting her back, France!
Lucie did ask us what our national dish was, and we presented her with Newtown’s iconic watermelon cake from Black Star Bakery.

Just like new! These beloved sandals were resurrected for their very happy owner. The shoe was palled apart, and rebuilt with only the foam footbed and upper being used. We re re-lined the footbed with leather, relined the upper, replaced the whole sole and gave them a good moisturise and polish.

This may just look like a Gucci vintage patent bag, but to us it was months and months of sourcing parts to be able to repair the torn straps. The tiny screws were old, had turned black and rusted into place. Most had to be drilled out, carefully as not to affect the threads on the screw holes. Thank you to iiiii’s Optique and BB jewellers in Newtown for trying to find the parts. Luckily our new friends in China were able to make tiny screws exactly the same size to replace.
