Yves Saint Laurent

Made in France

Wool / Gold Tone Brass / Leather / Vinyl

Measurements: 

• 6.5" Width
• 10.25" Height
• 2" Depth
• 16.5" Strap Drop

Condition: Great overall condition, especially for its age. There is a modern, fresh snap closure as the original caused functionality issues (there is subsequently, a spot of glue where the old snap was that is not visible when used). Minor/minimal signs of wear to hardware, leather, and vinyl bits. The inside, between the fabric, is comprised of chipboard that has bends and exhibits wrinkling when the main flap is open. This is an unfortunate part of its manufacture back then, but does not affect its beauty or usability, and is not noticed when wearing. This item remains an incredible collector's piece and is priced accordingly.
