Phil came to our rescue again this month. A few years ago the arms of our beloved Natuzzi armchair…read morestarted to crack so he took it away to re-leather and it turned out to be the best decision. This time one arm of our matching Natuzzi sofa was filled with sweat and dirt over the years and we thought of Phil immediately. He came quickly, assessed the damage and presented a solution that saved us the trouble of sending this big sofa his way. Phil was skillful; not only he conscientiously cleaned the dirty surface and sealed the imminent cracks with his magic hand he cleaned the whole set and prolonged the life of our living-room furniture. We highly recommend Phil.

It has sentimental value , so i decided to reupholster all 6 chairs. Pono couldn't match the fabric but searched and found something that was very close. He came and repaired all six chairs at a very reasonable price. We had a little bit of communication difficulty in the beginning, but that was speedily resolved. I am so glad that he took the job as others refused to come to our house to pick up the chairs....we would have had to drop them off at their repair shop. The chairs came out beautifully and I am happy with the job, well done.

We've had our futon sofa for over 20 years. It's comfortable and had a lot nice features. On New…read moreYears Day, the frame cracked right at the join. Unfortunately, the company it was purchased from was no longer in business. I didn't know who to call so I decided to check Yelp by inputting "futon sofa frame repair" and clicked on get estimates. To my surprise I got 5 responses all saying that my frame was repairable which made me quite happy. All had different suggestions based on the pictures I posted in my request. I selected The Leather Doctor Hawai'i because not only could he fix the frame but he could also fix our dining room chairs. He even had connection for getting the backing of our sofa cover and pillows replaced. I definitely made the right choice. A couple days later Pono came to the house to look at the "damage". He said it was definitely repairable. He would glue the original piece together, add a bracket behind it AND put in another "leg" for added support matching the color to the original as much as he could. Looking at our dining chairs he said just the webbing needed replacement as the set was also over 20 years old. The covers were fine. I was very pleased with his honesty as my husband and I thought we needed new cushions, etc. He left saying Thea, his assistant, would be sending me an estimate. The estimate came a few hours later. The best thing about all of this was that we didn't need to scramble to try to rent a truck to bring the items to him as neither we nor our friends own one. Everything would be completed on site. That was definitely a PLUS! Once I agreed to his estimate, Thea called for scheduling. Pono arrived promptly. Very courteous, friendly and respectful. He explained each step he worked. I was impressed that he notched the wood so that the board could easily rest in. It was centered and the tops of both boards matched. It looked like it was meant to be there. While the leg paint dried, Pono worked on our cushions. Again explanations were given as he replaced the webbings. The chairs now are comfortable to sit on and we no longer feel like we're "sinking." My family and I couldn't be happier with the results of his 5 hours of work. When the work was completed Pono cleaned after himself and took our sofa and pillow covers for repairing. Thank you, Pono. You are a gem!!!

This place is so cool when you first walk in. It's like you're on a ship looking out the window…read more What you're seeing are the shores of Connecticut, where the company is based out of. All of their bags are made of genuine leather and range in price from $500-$800, depending on the size. When you buy a bag, it comes with a matching pouch in the same color. They come in a variety of colors. The bags are soft and light. They get their leathers from France and Italy. This is the only place in Hawaii where you can purchase Oncour bags. The two salespeople were very helpful in providing information for me.

Oncour is under the Dooney & Bourke umbrella, and you can kind of tell from the style, but something about the Oncour bags seem a little cleaner in terms of style. Their bags are both canvas and leather, and let me tell you, the leather they use must have just come off the animal because the scent incredibly strong. I live in a small studio apartment and the whole thing smells like leather even though I got a canvas bag. Like Dooney, the bags are designed and crafted in the USA, but they import materials from Europe. The tag inside tells you the body construction (in my case it's vachetta leather and cabriolet fabric), the origin, style, and edition number and they give you a matching card with the same info. The only thing about the bag is that it does not have feet. The salesperson said it's for a cleaner look, but since I decided on the canvas bag, it's more likely to pick up dust an other particles. I'll just have to be careful.

I took in six pair with various repairs needed. Paid when dropped off, price reasonable, no big promises made and in fact, he looked a little dubious about fixing one or two of them.

Impressive.

IGNORE THE SIGN ON THE DOOR SAYING 'RING DOORBELL', spent sometime looking for a doorbell since…read morethere is a sign on the door saying "ring doorbell and we'll let you in", ended up calling to ask where is the doorbell and they said on the phone to just open the door. Had a laugh as soon as I came in. They explained that the sign is stuck on the door and can't come off. My main complaint is that their downtown location doesn't have that much selection so if you are looking for slides you are out of luck. So I highly suggest calling ahead of time to see if they have the product that you want is available. Ended up going to their Hilton location to get what I am looking for. My second complaint is that their locations are not really local friendly. Two of their locations are in Waikiki and this location in downtown has limited street parking that is usually taken. It would be nice if they had a location like at Windward Mall or Kāhala Mall.

The owner was gracious and kind enough to let me try on items they normally don't allow, which was fine.. since I ended up buying it. They do have hygienic items/protection for the clothing when you try things. The place is cool on its own, had a wide selection of trade items, shoes can be specially ordered.

I had a very disappointing experience consigning with VNTG Honolulu. The owner contacted me…read moredirectly after seeing my furniture listing on Facebook. He said he could sell it for $1,000, and that my estimated payout would be $600. I asked if he needed to inspect the table, before I loaded the car and delivered it over (the shop is 30-45 mins away from where I live). I was told to simply drop it off anytime during business hours. When I arrived, the owner wasn't present and the employees on duty seemed completely unaware of the process. There was no consignment agreement or contract provided at drop-off, which I was told to request from the owner. Despite multiple follow-up messages and phone calls requesting the paperwork (which was requested on 3 separate occasions, providing him my email directly to him twice), I never received anything. Three months later, when the item still hadn't sold, I returned to pick it up. Again, the staff appeared unsure of where the item even was. When they finally located it, it was dusty and clearly had not been displayed on the floor (as confirmed by the employee who retrieved it for me), which explains why there was zero chance it could have sold. I ended up selling the table the same day on Facebook for $500 on my own. Overall, the lack of communication, absence of a contract, confusion among staff, and failure to actually display the item were extremely unprofessional. Based on my experience, I would not consign items here again.

Shopping in Kaka'ako, Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. If you're looking for vintage furniture, unique art, and unusual decor, you might want to visit Vntg. We originally wanted to patronize Cafe VNTG - for iced tea and other beverages. However, after meeting the owner, Alex, we browsed around the hipster shop and admired the wooden tables, vintage sewing machine, authentic hula instruments, reindeer sculptures, centipede sofa, colorful glass platters, useful end tables, Asian chests, whimsical bar stools, etc. I really liked the gentle, cooling cross-breeze of the eclectic open-air space. The classy jazz music added to the artsy, calm vibe! We are grateful to Alex for his hospitality, kindness, and knowledge. His barista was missing, so he had to do double duty! We also appreciate the free parking on the top level of the Kaka'ako Commerce Center (enter from Kawaiaha'o Street) and the modern, clean restroom!
