About G'Old Atelier
Giving New Life to your beloved leather pieces
At G’Old Atelier, we specialize in restoring and transforming your cherished leather fashion accessories—shoes, handbags, belts, and more. Instead of discarding your beloved items, we offer expert craftsmanship to bring them back to life, making them look as good as new (or even better). We believe in the beauty of well-made items and the stories they carry. Every scratch, every crease tells a story, and we’re here to preserve and enhance it.
Meet your Leather Restorer
My name is Emanuela—Italian-born, former Londoner, and now a happy Stockholmer! My journey with leather craftsmanship began over 20 years ago, working as a technician, product developer and quality controller for luxury fashion brands worldwide.
I’ve always been passionate about art, colors, and handcrafts, and over time, I realized that true luxury is not about replacing things—it’s about preserving them. That’s why I started G’Old Atelier: to help people hold onto the pieces they love while making a positive impact on the environment.
With a deep understanding of leather, premium materials, and restoration techniques, I bring expert care to every piece that comes through our atelier.

The Story behind the Name
The name G’Old Atelier comes from “Gold from Old”, reflecting our mission to give a second life to items that might otherwise be discarded. We see potential in every scuffed shoe, every faded bag, and every worn-out belt—and we transform them with skill, care, and creativity.
G’Old Atelier was born out of a desire to merge sustainability with craftsmanship. After years in the corporate world, Emanuela wanted to create a business that values quality over quantity, people over numbers, and restoration over waste.

More than Restoration
A Commitment to Sustainability
We go beyond just repairs. At G’Old Atelier, we actively source surplus materials from luxury fashion brands, repurposing them into new designs and giving them a second life through restoration. By doing this, we not only restore existing pieces but also contribute to reducing waste in the fashion industry. Our approach is simple: Less waste. More beauty. Timeless quality.

Join Us in Redefining Fashion!
Fast fashion has created a culture of disposability—but we’re here to change that.
