The leather doctor just left and here are the damages:
The prognosis for the two leather couches is good, as long as they are taken care of immediately. For $85 the leather doctor will re-attach three buttons, after making one new button.
For another $250 the leather doctor will repair a section of the sleeper leather couch that had a section of creased areas that will be glued down, sanded, condtioned and then the color will be added to make it look as good as new. The second couch will have the same treatment after the first of the year, for another $700.
The blue wingback chair will have the right arm repaired for $200. This is the chair that a three year old child of mine bit a hole in twenty-one years ago when he was "teething." This will cost $200 and the chair will look as good as new.
The leather doctor was surprised at the quality of the leather furniture, and the excellent condition it was in for being so old. It all looks really good, but then my husband and children knew they had to treat the furniture well if they wanted to live. They are all alive.
