Quality hardware and fixtures complete the look of any handbag eyelet replacement or item. Unfortunately, time may mean that some parts of a bag fall off or wear out. At Baxter & Black, we have the ability to source from a variety of suppliers and can find that sought after component. In addition, we stock the correct die for our machines to set the eyelets in place.

In order to maintain eyelets, we need to employ the same care we do for leather. Keeping metal grime-free will cut down on corrosion. Avoiding overloading our items will mean there is less likelihood of eyelets pulling out or components breaking.

1. Before we start  the handbag eyelet replacement, we inspect the eyelet for wear or damage
2. We find a matching eyelet in our range or source the matching item through our network of suppliers
3. Next, we take out the old eyelet with an extraction tool
4. Carefully, we clean the surrounding area before setting eyelet
5. We fit a new eyelet (be it straight tube or nicked). Additionally, we fit the correct washer if needed
6. After this, we fit the correct die to the machine and set pressure depth so as to set the eyelet without marking the item
7. Finally, set the eyelet in place
