Hermès Béarn wallet, taupe — edge paint redone

A Hermès Béarn wallet in taupe (grey-brown) goatskin. The outer leather was in good condition, but opening and closing had worn the edge paint off the folding edges and corners.

The edge paint was redone to match the original edge colour. The outer leather was not dyed.

1. Clearing the peeled edge paint
2. Repainting the edges in the original colour

The edges read evenly. They can be seen side-on in the first and second after photos.After · photo 1

There is no side-on before photo of the edges alone, so the before-and-after comparison of the edges is incomplete.Before · photo 2

The two photos differ in angle, background or light, so they are shown side by side rather than overlaid.
