The Lovely Ledbury Club...

mmmm very true, but ive tried the e/w and the bays is to big for me really so im hoping this will be my only bag in this leather. i dont really like black or chocolate so hopefully im safe with the oak.
 
These bags are so awesome!! I’m after an older fairly structured (Darwin?) Ledbury with a slip pocket and inside straps. Am I on the right track - I’m a bit confused about these and the small/mini Bays. Keep getting conflicting info Thanks for any help
 
I have recently bought an old beat up Ledbury. When it arrived it was even in worse condition that I thought. Both handles broken inside. All four corners piping exposed - looked beyond rescue so did not have anything to loose. I have unstitched the handles and replaced the broken inside with some cable, flexi glued the corners and piping and filled with some leather filler and painted over with Angus leather paint (quite a few layers) looks like a new bag :smile: and I am so happy! Before and after pics :smile:

My Ledbury collection so far. The Darwin Choc bronze HW is my favourite. I bought some cheap rings on eBay so I can attach a strap and make her a crossbody if need be. Truth be told I enjoy her as a hand held more, they remind me of a birkin 25, certainly just as beautiful. I think they are a great size also.

The AG plum has faded into this interesting red/orange/plum colour. The leather has help up outstanding on this one.

The orange one is just NVT she is soft and floppy and great when I want to carry something with a pop of colour.
