Simply astonishing work to replace a broken and worn out leather scabbard for my wife's Father’s WW2 Army Officer’s sword.
The original scabbard proved to be irreparable so Daniel made a new one from scratch.
He treated the wooden interior sleeve.
Saddle stitched the new one by hand ( which took two days ….) and matched the colour using exactly the same thickness and weight of the original leather.
He also cleaned the shagreen on the sword grip and polished the blade and the steel “basket” ….which protects the hand.
He finally managed to source an “Acorn” which is the name for the decorated rope attached to the sword which goes round the wrist of the user.
Daniel kept me informed throughout the process and I learned so much about the history of the sword.
A great personal service which was much appreciated.

I’m stunned by what you’ve been able to achieve with my bag. Honestly, you’ve brought it back to life in a way that I wouldn’t have believed was possible. Even where there was damage like the rip in the leather or the damaged strap you’ve repaired it in a discrete way that I think will last well.
Thank you so much for bringing my favourite bag back. I’ll be in touch again if and when I need your help. But hopefully it won’t be too soon!

We used Daniel for the first time and couldn’t be happier with the service. He was professional, knowledgeable, and took real care with the work from start to finish. The results were excellent and everything was explained clearly, which gave us great confidence. We would highly recommend Devon Leather Care and will definitely be using Daniel again.

Daniel repaired and restored a precious attaché case which was in a very sorry state with the lid detached and bowed and handle that had disintegrated. He did magic with his craftsmanship and I am so delighted to have it back in full working order. Some before and after shots here

Amazing repairs to old bag. Grandfather’s old case had failing stitching, bottom falling out, ripped lining. Nearly threw out. Searched internet and Daniel looked like only possibility. Via few emails and photos he reckoned might be possible. Great service. He restitched, cleaned, coloured and relined. Stunning. Very pleased. Kept us well informed throughout restoration.

I am over the moon regarding the work done by Devon Leather Care. About a month ago I contacted Daniel and had an exchange of emails regarding a 100 year old briefcase owned by my late grandmother, which she used in World War 1 and which I desperately wanted to bring back to life. I had already tried a number of companies but they'd turned the challenge down as the briefcase was in such a bad condition. Daniel look it on, gave a price and date of completion. Three weeks later the briefcase arrived by Royal Mail. The work he has done is amazing. The brief case is now back in one piece and good for at least another 100 years. It's so reassuring to know that there are still craftsmen around.

I cannot speak highly enough of Daniel at Devon Leathercare!!!!
My dad is 94 years old and had a leather briefcase that had been used throughout his whole working life but showed its own tiredness!
After some communication with Daniel, the briefcase was sent and returned two weeks later like new!
Absolutely amazing!!! My dad is thrilled!!
Thank you Daniel!

Beautiful repair of a broken handle on a 1950s Fernand Desgranges crocodile handbag, what was required was explained carefully, quote provided, the repair was done in a very timely manner. Excellent work and communication. As an antique and vintage bag collector I would definitely recommend for leather repairs..

Daniel took looked at photos of a leather case from the 1960s in a poor state and offered to put it right. It has come back all restitched and now functional again. As a family item this is so brilliant. Highly recommended.

A beloved old oilcloth Cath Kidston handbag had cracks around the top opening edges, worn bottom corners and handles that were in a very sorry state. Daniel has worked magic on the poor old thing and I am delighted with the result. First class communication with Daniel from my first enquiry right through to the end of the transformation. I would use Devon Leather Care again without hesitation. Thank you Daniel.

My husband gave Daniel his late father’s suitcase to restore after it was completely ruined in a flood. The work Daniel did was truly outstanding, he brought it back to life and revived it in a sympathetic way. Saved for another generation. I cannot praise his work highly enough. Absolutely fantastic and a pleasure to find such a skilled craftsman. I sincerely recommend him to anyone needing leather work or products.

Daniel restored my father’s leather briefcase which had been used by him for 90+ years. What a master of his craft! He kept its history and authenticity while enabling me to use it in his memory. My father must be beaming from the stars.

What excellent service Devon Leather Care provided. Our very old rocking horse loved by our children and now grandchildren needed new reins and stirrup straps. Within days Daniel had made replicas and once again

Daniel is a true master craftsman. An heirloom handbag of 70 years has been totally transformed with new stronger stitching, strap extension and leather conditioning. All in keeping with the original. All at reasonable cost. His advice and knowledge...priceless! Thank you Daniel.

Daniel carried out an outstanding repair job on a very damaged briefcase belonging to my girlfriend's late grandfather. At our request he also added a very tasteful shoulder strap to add to the utility of the bag. Throughout, Daniel's communication was very clear and quick. I would thoroughly recommend Devon Leather Care for anyone wishing to have a leather item repaired. Super work all round!
First two pictures are before and second two are after!

Leather handle on my clarinet case fell apart. Daniel has replaced it with a really sturdy, solid leather, hand-stitched handle in a similar style to the original, which will certainly outlive the rest of the case! I sent it by post, he turned it around in a week & returned it at a reasonable price for a craftsman's work. I would recommend strongly based on my experience.

Great experience with Devon Leather Care. From start, my initial enquiry, to finish, picking up my binocular case, the professional attitude and consideration of my requirements shown to me, was just the ticket! Daniel explained clearly what was required to un stitch and re stitch my elderly binoculars case. Great result and a job well done. Sure it will outlast me! Thanks!

My Fathers military sword was not fit to be seen on parade when I took it into Daniel for repair and renovation.
It carried the wear and tear of more than one hundred years of ceremonial use and bad storage.
And in just two weeks it was transformed.
Broken and worn leather was revived beyond recognition and the metal now shines brighter than I can ever remember it doing so.
I am so grateful for the care taken to return it to its former glory, and my Father would be very proud to see it looking so handsome.
Thank you Devon Leather Care for such a great job.
I could not have asked for a better result.
I can highly recommend Daniel and his work to anyone with a leather treasure they want to save.

I had an old leather shooting bag repaired by them, and what a fantastic job. They managed to keep the look authentic, yet did a very neat and long standing job. Thank you so much. Good value too. Great service.
