Every Stitch, Every Serial Number, Preserved on Paper
System Maple Path maintains handwritten and bound inventory ledgers for collectors of rare wallets — Hermès, Goyard, vintage Chanel — so your collection survives beyond any single device or app.
What We Do
Offline Records for Serious Collectors
Bound Ledger Entries
Each wallet receives a numbered page with maker, year, hardware notes, provenance, and condition sketches drawn during your visit.
Insurance-Ready Documentation
Photographs are printed, dated, and cross-referenced in the ledger — accepted by several Korean insurers for high-value personal property claims.
Quarterly Update Visits
Collectors who acquire new pieces can schedule brief follow-up sessions to append their existing volume without starting over.
Cataloging Services
Records Tailored to Your Collection

Rebinding of existing inventory ledgers with new archival covers, reinforced spines, and continuation pages for growing collections.

From Collectors
Words From the Ledger Room
Min-jae spent an afternoon with my twelve Hermès pieces. The stitching diagrams on each page helped my insurer understand why the Himalaya required separate valuation. The only drawback: I wish the leather sample swatches had arrived a week earlier for colour matching.— Hye-jin Park, Seoul, Private Collection Catalog
After losing phone photos in a device failure, I wanted records that could not disappear. The bound volume now sits in my safe beside the wallets themselves. Straightforward process, no unnecessary jargon.— Robert Tanaka, Busan, Full Archive Rebuild
