Hey guys,

I got this awhile ago, left it in the closet and forgot about it. Would welcome any advice on whether to clean it and restore the leather thread or keep it like it is?

Hi Lofty, As far as the cleaning goes it is really up to you. The broken thread would be relatively easy to repair if you can get the right colour green. All you would need to do is plait the thread, and it looks an easy plait pattern.

Hi Lotfi
I'll have to come to Kuwait, and to Emirates, to root around a little
it is not fair that you pick up everything
and especially the most beautiful specimens ...

by the way, don't forget that, with "Super Glue", if done delicately, you may do miracles

all the best my "Brother"
