Hermès Béarn wallet, orange — edge paint only

A Hermès Béarn wallet in orange embossed leather. The colour and grain of the outer leather were in good condition; only the edge paint on the folding edges and corners had worn and peeled.

Only the edge paint was redone, in a colour that suits the orange leather. The leather did not need dyeing, so its colour was left as it was.
