I have a few vintage Brahmins & a Vivian I bought a few years ago. I got out the Vivian to carry on Easter but when I took her out of the dust bag, I noticed one of the small brushed gold studs on one of the handles had come off. I'm thinking of contacting Brahmin to see if I can get it repaired but it's not a recent purchase & I no longer have the receipt. Anyone ever get their bags repaired by Brahmin? If so, what's their procedure?

I had a Brahmin bag repaired once and it was a very easy process. The paint had chipped off on the bottom of the bag in several spots. I took it to the Brahmin boutique. They had me complete the repair form, then they shipped it off to Brahmin HQ. My bag was repainted and shipped back to me - all of this free of charge. I couldn't tell where the chipped spots were or that it had even been repainted - I was very impressed with their repair service!! I may be wrong, but I think they do repairs for as long as you own the bag. Did you register the bag on their website when you purchased it? If not, I'd call Brahmin customer service and ask them if they'll repair without a receipt. Hope it works out for you!!

Thanks for the info. :tup: No, I did not register the bag.:shucks: That would be my mistake. I may be able to find the original tag to it, tho. Good advise. I'll call Brahmin CS & see what they say. I just want the replacement stud to match the others since it's a brushed gold look instead of polished.

I'd think that'd be easy for them to repair, since most Brahmin bags seem to have the brushed gold hw. Good luck!!

How pretty! I don't go into belks much but the few times I have I've never seen Brahmin in there. I think it's one of the smaller stores though. That's ok though with the damage I do at Dillards.

I've only just learned how to attach pics so I'm not very good at it. But for another thread I snapped this picture of my brown/beige bags. Not shown is my ink Sloan and my black palm Arno tote. The only one of these I may delete from the collection is the taupe Havana. It's really too small for all that I haul around.

Hey Katiesmama!! Beautiful Brahmins you have here!! I love the Duxbury with the black and gold floral pattern - I forget what it was called but I think it's absolutely stunning!!

Thank you, Satchel and Run! It's called the Gatsby. I'll always remember that one's name because it's one of my favorite books! This picture really doesn't do it justice though. IRL it almost seems to shimmer.

Brahmin.com is posting new items in their "New Arrivals". I'm trying to hood out for the Sonny in Tan Charleston (since the Harrison hobo in that leather didn't work out for me), but there are a couple that are tempting me. What's a girl to do?!
