Every morning recently, I've been buying stone-ground rice noodle rolls for breakfast. The shop owner has a rather stern appearance, which makes me a little intimidated by her. Today, I don't know what gave me the courage 😂 to proactively ask her, why stone-ground rice noodle rolls are so much more fragrant than regular pork intestine noodles. Turns out, the owner is only stern on the outside; she's actually very friendly. She explained that stone-ground rice noodle rolls contain rice, which gives them a rice fragrance and makes them much more aromatic. - This kind of traditional craftsmanship is becoming increasingly rare, especially in Hong Kong, where it's truly hard to find. It's the same with pre-owned handbags. Many older bags were made using traditional leather-making techniques, methods that are rarely used by artisans today. So, when our artisan sees a new bag I've acquired, they often take it apart to study it 🤣 - Beyond the craftsmanship, classic designs also stand the test of time. Take the Vintage Celine bag above, for example. Its monogram pattern design, remains beautiful even in 2023! - Vintage Celine Crossbody Bag [Origin] Italy [Details] 1 zipped interior pocket [Dimensions] (W) 22cm (H) 16cm [Condition] Good condition, normal signs of leather use, more noticeable signs of use on the edges. - Before each pre-owned handbag is sold, it undergoes a 4-step restoration process by a professional artisan: 1) Cleaning and stain removal 2) Surface scratch repair 3) Hardware re-polishing 4) Application of leather conditioning cream for restored luster Restoration does not mean erasing all traces of time; the mission is to extend its historical narrative.
